I don't know how many of you have gardens but one of the things I'm trying to do is recycle all my organic waste. This makes great soil for gardens and such.
While I was thinking about this I started to wonder. Why don't we as a nation compost waste? Pretty much any paper, cardboard, food and organic material in general will compost. I can't help thinking this would do wonders for reducing landfill volumes. All of the fertile soil could be used here where needed or exported to some of the third world nations who can't grow a crop to save their lives.
Is there something I'm missing in the process that would make this a bad idea??
