Roasteries to Recycling Bins | NICK PERCY!
Description
Yeyo, Nick Percy joins the pod today to talk sustainability and coffee!
Nick's got the eco game down as the Sustainability Manager for Minor DKL Food Group, Nomad Coffee and Veneziano Coffee Roasters. We discuss his day to day operations - bin diving, meeting strangers in parks to bury compost and the (as of yet unofficial) take a Kirk to work day.
In breaking news, coffee concrete has been shortlisted for a National Research Impact Award, with the design giving coffee grounds a ‘double shot’ at life.
Also, how does a roastary become B-Corp certified, what can’t you put in a recycling bin, and what happens to Nick when he eats a halal snack pack? Oh and Rohan has a steammmy hot take.
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!
Thanks so much to Nick for joining us on the show. His approach to sustainability - doing something is better than nothing - has uplifted us all.
