In today’s episode of Earn Your Leisure, we sit down with Julian Brown to discuss how one documentary sparked his journey into becoming a scientist with over 7 million followers. After learning that less than 1% of plastic is actually recycled, he made it his mission to solve the global plastic waste crisis.
We break down pyrolysis—the process of turning plastic into crude oil—and how Julian built a microwave system in his backyard. He shares the challenges, from machine failures to going viral, and how he used content to fund and scale his innovation.
Julian also opens up about his long-term vision to eliminate plastic waste, turning down major deals, and what it will take to bring his technology to the world. This is a powerful conversation on innovation, resilience, and changing the future.
