At the age of 3, our guest this week watched a video of a turtle being harmed by plastic in the ocean and decided he wanted to make a difference to better protect the ocean, the turtles and the planet. Today, at 11 years of age, young Ryan is the CEO, manager and employee of Ryan’s Recycling Company. He spends a part of every week sorting through cans and bottles from his customers and getting them ready to take to the recycling centers and has recycled 1.3 million bottles and cans from hundreds of customers. For Ryan, the passion to protect our planet and recycle comes from an understanding that more bottles and cans recycled means fewer bottles and cans in the ocean!
