In 2006 Tom featured on the cover of Inc. Magazine, as the #1 CEO in America under 30 years old as part of their coveted 30 under 30 Awards.
Since then Tom has become a world leader in recycling and upcycling and is on a mission to show that Terracycle can be a very successful social enterprise with the key goal of eliminating waste from being burned or buried while being a profitable business.
