BE CURIOUS Podcast with Louise Houghton - Episode 11 Featuring Wes Carter & Atlantic Packaging
Episode 11 with Wes Carter, President of Atlantic Packaging and Founder of A New Earth Project.
In this episode we are getting curious about packaging. Every single thing we own has been packaged somewhere along the line and the amount of energy and resources needed to make that packaging is astronomical – worse still nearly 50% of plastic waste actually comes from packaging – but, there are solutions. Joining us from North Carolina is the President of Atlantic Packaging and the Founder of A New Earth Project, Wes Carter.
GUEST BIO:
Wes Carter is the third-generation leader of Atlantic Packaging, the largest privately owned industrial packaging company in North America. Atlantic supports major consumer products packaging needs across virtually every manufacturing vertical, specializing in packaging optimization through technology and comprehensive programs to drive sustainable value. Today, as the president of Atlantic Packaging, Wes is the driving force behind A New Earth Project, the company's sustainability initiative, and its commitment to working with brands of all sizes to transition away from problematic plastic packaging and help rid the world’s oceans, lakes, and rivers of plastic pollution.
Wes is an avid outdoorsman, lifelong surfer, and traveler who resides in Charleston, South Carolina. He serves on the Board of Directors for The Conservation Alliance, the Packaging Producer Responsibility Advisory Board, the Lowcountry Land Trust Board, and the UNC-Chapel Hill Board of Visitors in addition to other local and regional organizations fighting the waste crisis.
