Colin, my summer student, thought that since people are throwing away all this food, for those of us who are quite ambitious composters it would not be a bad idea to look to the dumpster for some extra compostable materials.
"I know for sure that it would be a good resource for browns and greens." he wrote, "Composters want to help the environment, and this is an easy way to do so, especially since there is personal gain."
Many MC/Rs dumpster dive for a number of reasons, and this month a team of Multifamily Educators will be poking around a bunch of unexplored territory to identify and correct inappropriate additions to residential Recycle bins. They won't be making a movie about it. Or will they...
I hope they find some good stuff - my birthday is just around the corner!
Very informative video Mark. I didn't quite realize the heuge scale of food wastage in North America...wow!
