Earth Day, 2009


This is the composter we saw at the Queens Botanical Gardens on our visit a while back, and it is just right for Earth Day. We also compost here at home, and it is a good thing to do. We save an estimated "1/2 ton" or so per year from going into the garbage--even though the occasional cat, raccoon, or possum knocks off the lid of the compost bin and then...? Water reclamation is next. Anyway, think globally, act locally--and live healthily if just a little.
