Hi! I’ve gotten into composting a lot more, and I try to do my best to compost everything that is compostable (Napkins, qtips, coffee grounds, etc) I even have a plastic bag I put all my compostables in, so I can put them in my bin when the bag is full. I even asked my coffee shop for their coffee grounds, which I’m hoping to make a weekly thing. What are some things you compost and do for the environment?

    If the place that collects your compost offers it, using the compost they produce closes the loop and enables the program to continue. Some places also offer composted poop (after being treated) from municipal sewers. It makes a balanced fertilizer and you get to feel good about keeping nutrients out of the waterway your sewer treatment outlets to. I still compost some on my own because I grew up with a compost pile and I like tending it, but supporting the organizations that are reclaiming nutrients from whole cities is a priority for me.
