16: Catalyzing on a More Sustainable Growing System

In 2012 Tinia Pina was volunteering for a SAT prep program in Harlem when she noticed that the food options available to the students — processed and fried — were not feeding them nutritiously to stay alert and the best chance to be productive.

She an opportunity use a waste stream as a way to catalyze a more sustainable growing near the urban areas to create Re-nuble, headquartered in New York City, and enable farms to transform Food Waste into Plant-Based Fertilizer for Soilless Cultivation

"We just want to do what's right for everyone....I'm in this business to get people to think and do differently for the benefit of the environment, for the benefit of people in nourishing ourselves."
