This week, your Every Action Counts - Action Ambassador is Nelson Berlin, BluPlanet Recycling
Nelson Berlin is the Business Development Manager at BluPlanet Recycling. His passion for sustainability and social change drove him to join the organization straight out of university 5 years ago. This passion and the corporate mission of BluPlanet push their aligned goals of changing how we view waste in Calgary and Canada. He believes that as Canadians we need to strive to not only be better at directing our waste to the right outlets but reducing our consumption and wasteful behaviour.
On the weekends you can find Nelson and his wife roaming the mountains in search of new hikes and scrambles or at the shared woodshop space (Fuse 33) building custom furniture for their small condo.
Nelson talks about keeping plastics out of the compost.
Nelson shows how to separate your recyclables.
