We have been doing the recycling for sometime now. Recently I decided that we need to start composting a little more seriously. So we changed our garbage can into a compostable receptor and put a little can beside it for actual garbage. The results of separation over the first week was an eye opener. Big reduction in waste.

On a mass scale this is huge. I have just did it for the office. With time will get the whole building involved. We have been doing this at the house for a couple years now with nice results. Sure saves a lot of money and trips to the dump, plus created some awesome resources for the gardens.

We all could do this. Looking forward to seeing if change can happen for you. Reduce your impact on the environment, one step at a time.

Ps we setup rain barrels in 2012 when I moved on site. These help keep the fliers watered through out the dry season.
