FOUNDERS OF REPURPOSE GLOBAL, WORLD’S FIRST PLASTIC CREDIT PLATFORM

According to Great Britain’s Royal Statistical Society, more than 90 per cent of the plastic produced is not recycled, and it takes more than 400 years for it to degrade. But, rePurpose Global—started by Wharton graduates Peter Wang Hjemdahl, Svanika Balasubramanian and Aditya Siroya in 2018—is a social enterprise that helps you offset your plastic footprint by providing financial and technical assistance to a global network of vetted recycling projects across three continents and six countries.
