Composting: The Easy Way
By: Ram VelamuriDear Reader,
Let me start with a situation that I went through a couple of months ago. I was travelling on the highway, and noticed that there were piles of organic waste in a landfill site. The organic waste, which contained fruits and vegetables, was just sitting in the middle of the landfill amongst toxic waste and plastic garbage.
I knew that a lot of this material could in fact be composted. After going home, I did a little bit of research, and found that around a quarter of the waste material in landfills was organic waste which could have been composted, instead of being sent to the landfill.
I wanted to do something about this, so I decided to make my own composting bin. Naturally, there would be challenges throughout the process. I live in a high-rise apartment, so there were 2 challenges: space, and the smell. I decided to tackle both of these challenges, by making a composting bin which took up a little bit of space, and produced no smell at all.
Have you wondered why this is an e-book, and not an actual book?
That's because I tried to be as sustainable as possible while completing my project. Making an e-book saves a lot of paper, and is environmentally-friendly. Throughout this book and guide, you will find that I have reused material as well to be sustainable.
This book is intended to be a helpful guide for home composting. In this e-book, you will find detailed steps and photos on how to compost at your home, and see results within one week.
I hope you find this book easy to navigate, and enjoy reading this book!
Happy composting!
