Lisa Gautier is the co-founder of Matter of Trust, an organisation creating hair mats to soak up oils spills, as one of their major projects.
Lisa talks to Raakhee about collecting hair donations from salons and pet groomers, turning them into hair mats, how they got involved and helped in the BP oil spill disaster in the Gulf of Mexico in 2010; using hair for compost and soil nutrients, the Ick factor, and the morals of taking ‘bad’ money (think polluters, crime lords) for good planet projects.
