Washing away carbon emissions in the laundry | Roger Berry | TEDxBoston
Humans have invented millions of chemicals that do many useful jobs. However, the intended beneficial properties can come at a cost to human and planetary health. Learn how implementing a nature-inspired chemical invention called TAML has the potential to save 85 million tons of greenhouse gas emissions and 26 billion gallons of water by changing the way we conduct an everyday task – laundry. TAML catalysts mimic nature’s processes to transform how we use chemicals, dramatically reduce carbon emissions, save precious water resources, and reduce the overall volume of chemicals in use today. Deploying TAML chemistry across multiple industry could save more than 1% of global carbon emissions and can have a radical impact on our planet. At the same time, the resource efficiency and potential cost savings for industry can align incentives to help the solution scale. Roger Berry is the CEO of Sudoc, LLC, a company with a patented, nature-inspired chemistry that makes chemical reactions exponentially more powerful. With more than two decades of experience with investing in and leading companies with a focus on sustainability has prepared Roger for his current role in building a transformative sustainable chemistry company in Sudoc.
