This business idea came to Jaffee on an airplane October 2022 while listening to Icelandair's in-flight entertainment after a European edition of Making Vinyl conference In November 2024, Thermal Beets released its first plant-based record, Astro-based Icelandic air market, 2025, Astro-based record, East Iceland's most plant-based record, 2025.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-8f761849 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1298\" height=\"2048\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lhi.is\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/LJ@AtoZ-1-scaled.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-22416\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lhi.is\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/LJ@AtoZ-1-scaled.jpeg 1298w, https:\/\/www.lhi.is\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/LJ@AtoZ-1-1014x1600.jpeg 1014w, https:\/\/www.lhi.is\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/LJ@AtoZ-1-507x800.jpeg 507w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1298px) 100vw, 1298px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n\n<div class=\"text-section txt-columns txt-content\"  >\n\t<div class=\"container\">\n\t\t<div class=\"row animation-child-elements animation-bottom\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"col-md-12\">\n\t\t\t\t<p>Larry Jaffee is Co-Founder of Thermal Beets Records, which aims to set the bar globally for sustainable record manufacturing.
