Episode 61 - Bruce Kania

Founder - Floating Islands International

Bruce Kania was raised in Wisconsin, where he developed a love of fishing and the environment. He became an inventor and was able to develop a sleeve for prosthetics that allowed him to pursue whatever other passions he found interesting. After moving to a piece of property in Montana, Bruce’s interest in the environment led to the development of a revolutionary technology involving floating islands, consisting mostly of peat, that not only provided a natural process for cleaning bodies of fresh water, but also rejuvenated the environment around them. Since developing Floating Islands International, the company has overseen over 14,000 installations all over the world. You can learn more about this amazing company at floatingislandsinternational.com
