  • Episode 20: John Goods |

    John Goods is a chemist and inventor who is interested in the ways humans interact with energy and materials and how the unseen chemical world around us influences our experience.  He is currently the co-founder and Chief Technology Officer at Ravel, a startup that is working to make synthetic textile recycling a commercial reality.

    John talks with Ruth about his initial interests in chemistry, the power of mindfulness in his life, the nuances of critical decision making, and the role that technology can potentially play as we push toward a more sustainable way of living.  They discuss the ongoing environmental crisis related to clothing waste, highlighting that the USA has the largest textile waste footprint in the world by far.  John and Ruth are excited about Ravel’s pursuits in tackling the difficult challenges of recycling blended fabrics and have hope that their efforts toward textile circularity will help transform the culture of fashion and provide viable options for recycled materials in the marketplace.
