Great News for Urban Composting

I just spotted this on Laist: Residential composting may be the next phase in reducing landfill waste. That’s fantastic news, and I really hope the program is a success. It definitely provides another reason to think about getting a home composter. The city is providing 2-gallon composting bins to the initial 8,700 hundred homes participating in the project, but if you want a more stylish option, check out these compost bins:

I met this girl who lived with this super green couple that did their own homemade compost bin. Needless to say, they don’t exactly do a good upkeep job. They basically just have three trash cans: reg trash, compost, recycle. And neither of them takes out the waste very often.

I’m sure she’ll dance a jig to know the city will be providing compost bins in the near future!
