INSTRUCTIONS: Composting is an activity that is rewarding, ecological and practical. According to statistics provided by the Environmental Protection Agency of the United States, over half of the waste thrown away by Americans in 2014 consisted of materials that could have been easily made into compost, in a simple way that would considerably reduce the amount of trash that is sent to local waste facilities. To create compost, one must make the most of organic waste, and not throw it away in the garbage. Compost is an organic fertilizer that naturally and effectively nourishes the plants in ones garden. What can one use to make compost? Fruit and vegetable waste Black and white newspapers Expired yogurt Eggshells Hair Sawdust What CAN'T you use to make compost? Meat, fish, or bone Rotten vegetables (these will give off a bad odor) Plastic, glass, varnish, or glue Eggs After a few days in the compost bin, one must remove the items in the bin and relocate them to soil (garden or potted plant) so that the compost can continue the process of decomposition and become humus, the natural fertilizer that nourishes all plants.
