We should all get into a new habit of putting our food scraps and compostables into the bin under the sink in the break kitchen.

Composting is very easy to do at home too! It can be as simple as keeping your scraps from fruits, veggies and coffee grounds in a container in the kitchen. You can add this straight to your garden or start a larger composting site in your yard. Your soil will be richer in mineral content and you’ll save landfill space as well. If everyone in the US composted their scraps, in one year the volume kept out of landfills would be a 3-foot deep area the size of San Francisco.
