Follow your passion: Manali Yavaktar's journey from AI to sustainability
In the United States alone, we waste about 92 billion Pounds of food. That translates to almost a half billion dollars a year. Not to mention the environmental impact that poses. Today we are going to talk with somebody who left a career in AI to work on making the world more sustainable, so stay tuned.
Hey everybody, this is Chris Brandt here with another FUTR podcast.
Today I am talking with Manali Yavatkar Founder and CEO of Palm. She has created a smart appliance for compost collection, Palm Bin preps food waste for nutrient rich “Black Gold compost,” which sold out in just a day on Kickstarter.
Palm Bin collects food scraps for composting without the smell and mess, while maintaining the moisture and microbes in food. Its cooling tech uses thermoelectric semiconductors to keep food scraps cold to stop odor-causing bacteria.
So let's talk with Manali about composting and how her design takes the challenges out of home composting.
Welcome Manali
