Former Blackhawk helicopter pilot Chris Videau went from saving soldiers on the ground to saving oceans from tons of plastic laundry bottles. Videau and his wife (also a veteran) founded Sheets Laundry Company, which ships degradable detergent sheets the size of a postcard direct to consumers. We discussed how they discovered the business opportunity, how a chance meeting at their son’s T-ball game evolved into a garage-based business and how they hope to make a world of difference in an industry that is a major source of plastic pollution. (Note: Every second the equivalent of a dump full of plastic is dumped into our oceans.)
