Eco-Note of the day: COMPOST! 75% of household waste comes from organic matter, most of which is compostable. Not only would this be cutting down on landfill waste, but composting encourages aspects of the environment such as earthworm activity, filtration in air and water in the roots zone of trees and soil structure.
