At just 16 years old, Leo Toake from New Jersey is on a mission to create a revolutionary herbicide sourced from food scraps. Through his nonprofit, Re:Imagine Inc., he’s mobilized over 70 volunteers for habitat restoration and invasive species removal. Early trials of Toake’s S.A.F.E. clearly show an 82.5% effectiveness against Japanese stilt grass, all while repurposing over 500 pounds of food waste and contributing to a cleaner environment.
