Zero Waste Webinar coming soon

We have decided it's time to produce our first zero waste webinar. We'll explain our process in detail for those of you who may be interested.

We'll make some instructional videos regarding the vessel composting, worm farming, and compost tea brewing. We'll also show how we transport the food wastes from kitchen to composter.

It's so simple it's a joke. But zero waste is no joke, really... Most important from my perspective is the food and green waste composting. We diverted and composted approximately one ton of food and green wastes per month last year. That means that we prevented approximately 6000 cubic meters of CO2 from being released into the atmosphere each  month.

That's right, one metric ton of food waste, when landfilled, produces 300 cubic meters of methane gas which is 20 times more harmful to the atmosphere than is CO2. Do the math...300X20=6000.

If we divert one ton of food waste per month from our small food concession, think about how much food and green waste you are producing at your course, restaurant or home. Save our environment and start composting!
