2: Sophie Walker and Tom Passmore: Why I care about rubbish data

Why I care about... - A podcast by Swirrl

In this episode, Sarah talks to Sophie Walker and Tom Passmore, of Dsposal, about why they care about rubbish data.   Both Dsposal, and its sister offering Your Dsposal, aim to combat waste crime through effective use of data, and are built on linked data from the Environment Agency. From early work talking to residents about food recycling, to a data epiphany on holiday in the Prairies, Tom and Sophie share their experiences and vision for both the environment and environmental data. Because, as Sophie says, we all create waste - but knowing where it should go (and what to do with it), isn't always straightforward.
