Composting

The amount of fertilizer you can get from your compost bin annually, about 100 kg, means that composting is a very worth while endevour. The mix of green  ( nitrogen-rich ) and brown ( Carbon-rich) materials or common and maintaing the compost bin seems very easy. I do not have a compost bin at my house, but them seem to easy to set up and valuable im thinking of making one.



Amanda from the compost video was cute.

DIRT

The corolation between healthy soil and great civilazations such as ancient Mesopotamia and anciet greece highlights the power of healthy soil and its neccesity in our lives. Soil seems to be tied to all sorts of issues, the fact that it can reduce the amount of carbon in the atmosphere is really cool. Soil is teeming with life and the fact that there are billions of microbes living in healthy soil shows the interconections in nature. It is staggareing to me that there is limited funding in reasherch for the problem of soil degradation. its seems like a very serious problem.

I wonder how long it takes for healthy soil to mature?
