If you live, work, or visit some parts of San Francisco you've likely spotted piles of trash along sidewalks, leaving some impassable.
Tyrone Mullins is working to make all Bay Area streets cleaner by bringing together property managers and community leaders to help create jobs and reduce waste.
Mullins was locked up for three years. When he was released, Mullins says everyone wrote him off, even his own family. He says he knew he couldn't waste his life, so he started cleaning up around his neighborhood. "The property manager at that time, David Mauroff said to me, 'If you can help us figure out something with this trash, we'll get you the seed money to start your own business.'"
Tyrone co-founded Green Streets. It's a community-owned and operated business that contracts with property managers and Bay Area cities, going into low-income and commercial settings managing composting and waste diversion.
