Little Miss Sunshine asked:
As our landfills are quickly filling…we need to address the problem of landspace for waste disposal. A very high percentage of our trash is composed of materials that are biodegradable. I’m proposing a community composting plan similar to trash pick-up and recycling pick-up. The nutrient-rich soil created from the compost could be sold to farmers for fertilizer, and the profits could be used to put back into the program to lower the costs of running it. Do you think this would be a good idea?
How would I go about getting this started on a government level?

I was wondering, since the microbes that break down compost the fastest are aerobic, would adding hydrogen peroxide speed up the process?

I bought a pound of them and they are working their tails off but I think I have to many for just two people. They are neat and tidy and live on my kitchen counter. If you are interested, I will let you come and see the set up. I think it would be great to teach youngsters about living green
