About this Regally Graceful Podcast

Beth Williams started Turtle Bags when she realised how plastic bags were killing turtles because they think of them as food. She has built up both a thriving business and also raised our awareness about the impact of plastic bags on our environment and the animals who live within it.

In this Regally Graceful Podcast we will explore how Beth became an entrepreneurial eco-warrior when she saw a way to encourage people to be responsible about packaging, why the well-being of endangered species matters to us, and how toxic materials enter the food chain. We’ll also hear the challenges Beth overcame to work with a co-operative in Bangladesh making bags which materially minded Westerners would prefer to use than convenient plastic bags.
