Why Do We Need To Create a Widespread Movement Toward Composting?

Throwing food waste into a compost bin instead of landfill can have a big impact.

Divert Waste

Reduce food waste and turn it into incredibly valuable nutrient-rich compost instead.

Enrich Soil

Composting promotes healthy soils that require less water, fertiliser and pesticides.

Combat Climate Change

Composting reduces Greenhouse Gas emissions by capturing carbon and returning nutrients to the soil.
