On this edition of In Black America, producer/host John L. Hanson Jr. speaks with Kenner Rogers, Founder and President of Keymel Technologies, LLC.
Rogers, a New Orleans native grew up with a passion for gardening, which later evolved into his love for Science, Metrology and Environmental studies. He often reflects on a commercial that depicted a Native American Indian dishearten by once a pristine landscape that became desolate and defiled due to pollution.
That commercial left a profound impact on him, which resulted in the development of a philosophy that, 鈥渞espect what Mother Nature has provided, and preserve what God has given for future generations,鈥� he says. This philosophy along with the 鈥済oing green鈥� movement ignited him to seek business opportunities in the field.
