Description
Hosted by Chad Compton, this 1994 episode of Focus Hawaii features Carol and Gary Sing of Triod Promotions Incorporated, a pioneering brokerage firm specializing in advanced environmental technologies. The conversation explores how Triod functions as a global “one‑stop technology center,” connecting industries, governments, and communities with innovative solutions for water purification, wastewater treatment, air‑pollution control, alternative energy, and industrial cleanup systems. Carol and Gary describe their extensive research efforts, early exposure to international environmental trade shows, and their eventual expansion into Southeast Asia, India, Europe, and the Pacific Rim. They explain how they identify polluting industries, introduce cutting‑edge technologies—from fast pyrolysis to non‑toxic oil‑spill remediation—and coordinate technical teams to implement solutions. The episode also delves into broader environmental concerns: the ecological toll of industrialization, the links between pollution and human disease, the importance of recycling and clean water at the household level, and the need for societies to reconnect with nature. With sincerity and urgency, the Sings discuss the economic resistance they face from companies reluctant to invest in environmental upgrades, their hopes for global ecological awareness, and the satisfaction of helping clients worldwide adopt sustainable solutions—such as their landmark sewage‑aerator distributorship completed entirely by phone and fax.
