Today's topic: how to impact change at a regional and local level. To discuss this, our guest today is Franziska Trautmann, co-founder and CEO of Glass Half Full New Orleans, New Orleans' first and only glass recycling facility that recycles glass into sand for coastal restoration. Franziska was born and raised in Louisiana, where she experienced our coastal erosion crisis and lack of recycling options. While a senior at Tulane University, she co-founded Glass Half Full alongside Max Steitz to tackle these two issues. After graduating with honors in Chemical Engineering in 2020, she continued to pursue Glass Half Full full-time. She now serves as the CEO, forging new partnerships and leading coastal restoration efforts.
