In 2013, Russell Touyz began with the Paper Cup Project, platforming artists and supporting non-profits through art placement on coffee cups. Now 10 years later, he’s the man behind Eco Barista, the sustainable coffee packaging company that’s changing the game for roasters and cafes.
In this episode, we explore Russell's business journey, his dedication to Mother Earth, and what sustainability looks like for the future of the industry. Plus, we spill the tea on the fall of REDcycle… and ask the question; how do we navigate greenwashing and eco-jargon when making planet-friendly choices?
Also, tune in for Hospo Horror Stories, some SMOKING hot-takes and Kirk’s cafe rebrand!
If you're new here (welcome), our show dives into some of the best coffee conversations on the internet, but we will always remind ourselves at the end of the day; It's Just Coffee!
