A New Life for Waste

Composting takes between three and six months, resulting in a dark brown material with the smell of wet earth. To avoid any problems during composting, we should take precautions such as not adding meat scraps, fish, bones, fish bones, or dairy products; inorganic materials; or diseased plants, plants with seeds, or plant debris treated with chemicals. Composting improves soil structure, reduces greenhouse gas emissions, and increases moisture, contributing to greater resilience in the face of climate change.
