1. Using Organic Materials
We use organic materials daily and often have leftovers or extras that can be turned into a resource, not waste
Compost piles
breakdown organic material into
nutrient rich soil
2. Reuse
Organic Materials
-
66% of materials thrown into landfills are organic and can be used as a resource, not waste.
​
-
When organic materials break down without oxygen, they produce methane which is a strong greenhouse gas, 20x more destructive to the atmosphere than carbon dioxide (CO2).
​
-
Excess methane in the atmosphere is creating a blanket around the earth, contributing to global warming.
​
​
4. Reduce
Greenhouse Gases
Plants use CO2 to eat (photosynthesis). Oxygen
is released back into the atmosphere and the Carbon is stored in the soil
3. Replenish Soil
Adding compost to native topsoil will
provide a slow
release​ of nutrients
to grow healthy plants
The Compost Circle
Food and other compostable materials are a resource to the environment. When these materials are composted we Reduce waste in landfills by Reusing organic materials to Replenish the soil.
