The more processed foods you eat the more garbage you create but eating whole foods you make garbage too. All those uneaten apple cores, banan peels, juicer pulp, stems, scraps etc. end up in your trash and fill up our landfills. It's a shame that our landfills are being filled with items that could be put right back into the land and make our planet a greener place. What is this amazing thing that saves our enviornment? COMPOST!! All you have to do is collect those scraps and other compostable items (paper napkins/towels, q-tips, hair, paper plates) and put them in your compost bin and make great soil for your garden. Many people don't do this because they think it is hard. IT IS EASY! If I can start a compost in my apartment so can you! How did I do it? I bought some cheap plastic boxes from Costco and had my wonderful hubby punch some holes in the whole thing. Got some top soil and filled my box about 3 inches. Then I just put all my compostable items in the box and top with newspaper. Easy, easy, lemon squeezy!
You can make a difference in your community by starting a compost in your home. You can even make some money by selling your wonderful soil on Craigslist or simply give it back to the earth and put it in your garden, backyard, or under a tree. You can help save the environment by making this simple change in your home today.
