"I think every business has both responsibility and opportunity to do something good for the world. I think it's becoming increasingly clear to us the most successful brands of tomorrow will be those who go above and beyond for people and planet."

This episode features Will Pearson, co-founder and co-CEO of Ocean Bottle. They are on a mission to save the ocean from ocean-bound plastic. Each Ocean Bottle funds the collection of 1000 plastic bottles in weight, and so far, they have collected 14,164,500 kilograms of plastic via its grassroots partners in coastal communities.
