Ep 15 - Talking Trash About Creative Reuse

It's true that one man's trash is another man's treasure, and nothing has embodied this notion like the Creative Reuse, or upcycling, movement. Today there are many Creative Reuse Centers around the country that help discarded items find new life. Austin Creative Reuse (ACR) Executive Director Cory Skuldt and Board President Carole LeClair join us to discuss the Creative Reuse movement and its importance in transitioning to a more sustainable economy. We also explore how ACR was formed, what they do, and ways for everyone to participate in the Creative Reuse Center movement.
