Clean Planet Group is on a mission to turn the tide on plastic waste—with a mix of creativity, innovation, and bold action! In Episode 7 of Clear Haze Exchange, host Marcus Hazelwood welcomes Bertie Stephens, the CEO and board member of
Clean Planet Group. Whether it’s sparking young minds through storytelling, transforming unrecyclable plastics into clean energy, or developing futuristic fuels for flight, each division plays a unique role in reimagining our planet’s future. Together, these efforts are paving the way for a cleaner world—one story, one solution, and one piece of plastic at a time.
Clean Planet Foundation: This division allows the Board to take calculated risks and support initiatives that do not require a financial return. The return on investment is far greater from future generations!
As a film director and children’s book author, Bertie appreciates how storytelling can be used to educate, combat plastic waste, and promote sustainability. By engaging younger generations through relatable narratives in chapter books and comics, the Clean Planet Foundation can inspire a new wave of advocates and simplify some of the complex environmental challenges we face.
Clean Planet Energy: By converting unrecyclable plastics back into oil, Clean Planet Group promotes a circular economy where materials are reused rather than discarded. The company’s efforts align with the growing demand for sustainable practices among consumers and businesses alike, as more organizations seek to meet sustainability targets and reduce their environmental impact.
Clean Planet Technology: By focusing on research and development, efforts are being made to advance the technology needed for converting plastic waste into aviation fuel. The implications of utilizing plastic waste as aviation fuel extend beyond environmental benefits. By adopting sustainable aviation fuel derived from plastic waste, these organizations can significantly reduce their carbon footprint associated with air travel, thus contributing to broader climate goals.
