Do you know that we are in INTERNATIONAL COMPOST AWARENESS WEEK?
That’s right, International Compost Awareness Week takes place in the first week of May.
Nowadays, there are many ways you can utilize your daily organic waste to turn it into compost not only at home but also at your workplace in tight urban areas.
But first, do you know the benefits of composting from food waste?
Environmental benefits: reducing methane emissions, a potent greenhouse gas produced during the decomposition of organic waste in landfills. Reducing organic waste in landfills also means helping to shrink the land area used as landfill sites. Additionally, it limits the greenhouse gas generated from organic waste during decomposition.
Economic benefits: reducing waste collection and disposal bills, and you also don’t need to spend money buying fertilizers for crops.
Benefits for plants & gardens: compost contains essential nutrients for growth and helps plants thrive.
Benefits of clean food: gardens using organic compost will produce clean products that are good for health.
There are many benefits that composting brings. These are the basic benefits for you to consider, instead of throwing away organic waste, recycle and utilize it. If you’re still unsure about composting and don’t know where to start, you can consider an Oklin machine, which can help you embark on the sustainable living easier.
