Did you know?
Organic recycling is a process that involves breaking down organic waste materials, such as food scraps, yard waste, and agricultural residues, into valuable resources. It is an environmentally friendly alternative to landfill disposal, which contributes to greenhouse gas emissions and soil contamination. Organic recycling methods include composting, anaerobic digestion, and vermicomposting.
One of the most significant benefits of organic recycling is its ability to divert organic waste from landfills. When organic materials decompose in landfills, they release methane, a potent greenhouse gas that contributes to climate change. By recycling organic waste, we can significantly reduce the amount of waste sent to landfills, mitigating the environmental impact and lowering methane emissions.

Join us in helping reduce the amount of waste that is going to landfills!
