Trent Romer is a sustainability leader, author, and TEDx speaker who has spent 30 years in the plastic bag manufacturing industry before serving as a sustainability operating partner for a private equity firm focused on environmental, social, and governance issues. His latest book, This Is Our Home is a cautionary yet inspiring tale to take personal action in the fight against the planet’s destruction. Romer draws on two clear experiences that motivated his own journey toward sustainability. The first was as co-owner of Clear View Bag Co., Inc, founded in 1961 by his grandfather. When the 2017 anti-plastic narrative swept the globe, Romer realized it was time to find an eco-friendly alternative to the manufacturing process. The second was childhood memories growing up near Nassau Lake, a once beautiful body of water turned polluted by a nearby toxic dump. These pivotal periods in Romer’s life led him to discover and enable tangible, personal methods to encourage nature preservation and environmental sustainability. Romer has earned sustainability certificates in Corporate Sustainability Management Risk, Profit and Purpose from Yale University and Education for Sustainability Leadership from Harvard University. He obtained his undergrad in economics at Hamilton College and a master’s in education and an MBA from University at Albany. In 2022, Romer spoke at TEDxBoston, a year after completing Climate Reality Leadership Training. He authored Finding Sustainability, a “gold winner” in the Non-Fiction Book Awards. When Romer isn’t writing, speaking, or working with companies to find their own sustainability path, you can find him by the ocean, exploring a national park, watching basketball, or taking long bike rides in nature. He is guided by his faith, passionate about the planet, and dedicated to his wife, three boys, and their beloved dog, Bear. Romer lives with his family outside of Albany, NY.
