After rambling about cow farts + burps, Stephen says “save food scraps from the bin.” Food scraps in landfill create methane - a toxic gas 20x worse than the emissions from our cars.
Saving food scraps from your bin, by putting them back into the soil, makes healthy soils to grow more food + draws more carbon out of the atmosphere.
We only rely on the soil for 99% of our calories!
So it's kinda, like, really, really IMPORTANT.
Get a kitchen caddy.
Get a worm farm (we dig www.wormlovers.com.au)
Get a compost bin.
Get some chickens.
Wizz scraps in a blender with water for a disgusting ‘sludge smoothie’ + dig back into the soil.
Got no garden?
Live in an apartment?
Give your scraps to neighbours, friends or family who can get those nutrients back into the soil where they belong.
Google to find out your local council options for organic waste.
