Answer:

Compost is organic material that can be added to soil to help plants grow. Food scraps and yard waste together currently make up more than 30 percent of what we throw away, and could be composted instead. Making compost keeps these materials out of landfills where they take up space and release methane, a potent greenhouse gas.

Explanation:

All composting requires three basic ingredients:

Browns - This includes materials such as dead leaves, branches, and twigs.

Reducing Wasted Food Basics

Greens - This includes materials such as grass clippings, vegetable waste, fruit scraps, and coffee grounds.

Water - Having the right amount of water, greens, and browns is important for compost development.

Your compost pile should have an equal amount of browns to greens. You should also alternate layers of organic materials of different-sized particles. The brown materials provide carbon for your compost, the green materials provide nitrogen, and the water provides moisture to help break down the organic matter.

Explanation:

Home and community composting

Composting of domestic organic waste from kitchens and gardens by households or at a small community composting facility is referred to as home and community composting. Composting at home and in the community eliminates the financial and environmental expenses of organic waste removal. When other biowaste treatment solutions are less acceptable based on the adopted local waste management plan and/or findings of LCA studies on the optimal waste management options of the administered territory, home and communal composting is generally used.

This method has the potential to elicit "buy-in" from individuals who would otherwise be less likely to separate organic trash, resulting in considerable reductions in residual waste quantities and increased overall recycling rates, especially in locations with poor organic waste recycling rates.

The following things must be considered while implementing home and community composting practices:

  • Organize and promote home and community composting in a systematic manner, keeping track of the number of people who participate and registering where composting equipment is built and used.
  • Organize first public awareness efforts using graphic materials, public gatherings, garbage advisers, and other methods. teaching and training residents about the benefits of household and community composting, how to do it correctly, what biowaste is appropriate, and so on.
  • Update and instruct residents on how to compost properly at home and in the community on a regular basis.
  • Monitoring composting sites at home and in the community on a regular basis. Every year, a number of representative sites can be examined to assure proper composting operation and environmental advantages.

The accomplishment of home and community composting as an environmental management strategy is highly dependent on citizen management of the waste separation and composting process, which requires first engaging citizens to motivate them to separate organic waste and then training them to correctly manage the composting process. In urban areas, more effort may be required to organise home and community composting.
