Most purchases become waste within a year, an economic reality Tom Szaky terms "negative demand." He asserts this is fixable, as everything is recoverable if economics support the effort.

Szaky, founder and CEO of TerraCycle, pioneered recycling for challenging items like cigarette butts and diapers. He also launched Loop, a platform for products in durable, reusable packaging from major brands. An author recognized by global organizations, his insights were shared at a TEDx event.
