Recycling is one facet to solving the climate crisis, but most of us are doing it wrong. Today on Found, Becca and Dom are talking with Rebeca Hu, the CEO and cofounder of Glacier, an AI robotics company that is building robots to accurately sort recycling. They talk about how many of us are wish-cylers who hopefully throw non-recyclables into the bin and how Glacier’s robots are sorting the recycling and making sure all of our recycling mistakes are corrected.

They also talked about:

  • What it takes to train an AI-powered sorting robot
  • What the reception has been like in recycling facilities
  • How the robots are tracking the kind of waste we’re creating as they sort
  • How Rebecca told this story to fundraisers who have very likely never stepped foot in a recycling center.
