Circ's Journey Toward Recycling 10 Billion Garments with CFO Luke Henning

Today’s guest is Luke Henning CFO of Circ, the only start-up in the world right now that can recycle and recover both polyester and cotton from fabrics.

The technology Circ is using could be one of the solutions to textile waste, which as we know is a major contributor to carbon emissions and pollution.

Luke explains why we haven't figured out how to recycle textiles yet, and what it will take to get there, offers his advice on how we can all lower our environmental impact, and shares, why Patagonia has supported Circ’s mission, to recycle 10 billion garments, which will save more than 100 million trees.
