I'm proud and salute you sir

Yes yes yes, indeed it is 💯

It sure is and it's damn good for Turf also...lots of carbon is excellent for the soil biochar is also great as well. it acts like a sponge absorbing water when it's too rainy and it releases water when it's dry..full of carbon

@@BuffaloNickel9 Also Nitrogen

@@Pumpkin-VR2 Well nitrogen drives n the bus that's for sure..It's the big daddy.. Not sure if you're talkin about getting nitrogen from biochar which is NOT why you put biochar on turf. Definitely want to get your nitrogen from your granular or liquid fertilizer, but I'm sure the porous biochar acts like sponges to accumulate and release nitrogen as well other nutrients to your soil if that's what you're saying? Which it probably is and you're correct

@@BuffaloNickel9 Yup

Even if you don't have a backyard! I live in an apartment and I have a worm bin that I feed a lot of my food scraps

@@jeffwei want to see it on your channel?

I just put it in a big pile and burn it

@@jeffwei I love hearing about other worm binners! I'm considering doing a "friendship worm" gift circle with friends and family who are interested in starting their own bins once my worms get too plentiful. Like the sourdough starter, but with red wigglers. :D

@@jamie6387 that's a net negative.

anaerobic compost isn't equivalent to aerobic. the biodiversity is different and thus not as suitable to plants which need the aerobic microorganisms

In Finland only the finest waste goes to bioenergy plants, grude stuff goes directly to composting. Its been like that since 90's of course new tech has made it more efficient.

in canada and america , we have all the natural gas and oil we need . if we were like finland without those resources in the ground then yah we would def be doing the same i think . good process tho , nothing goes to waste .

@@sammydiamond6115 this. The extra cost of making methane like that would just not make sense, due to how low our natural gas prices are.

Nahh trashing it all is just easy. No use for compost. Im not running a garden to make my own food thats just silliness i can buy it

would love to learn more! I'm looking into doing the same and feel a little overwhelmed

@@RumblesBettr It’s not a matter of having garden or not, it’s a matter of realizing to what end will your waste becomes. Because most of the waste you created will ended up piling in landfill accumulating even bigger. You may be lucky enough to be able to not think about it, but it’s probably because your city already have a system going to manage that waste, and you can afford to benefit from that system. Also you can still compost without having any garden (to sell them maybe), and buying them is a roundabout way that cost you more money, since they sold waste back to you in form of compost, when you can just let organic stuff rots back into soil for free.

I think most Western World countries have been doing this and more, for over two decades. America just doesn't care about it's Global Mass of Pollution.

This sounds like a typical US-American point of view. In many Western countries this is more than normal. And the fact that this isn’t even standardized in the US but instead a regional curiosity that Business Insider thinks it’s worth mentioning is a little shocking...

In my country this has been done since the 1980's. The USA is very slow to catch up with the rest of the world.

most of the world does this, US just doesnt and is selfcentered enough to think that if most of the US doesnt do is the rest of the civilized world doesnt do it. Incredibly dumb take by business insider.

@JitzyJT we do have separate bins for that, it’s just lazy people who don’t do it properly that end up contaminating the countryside.

I've just moved to Brighton & Hove area, they're the only green council in the UK & are miles behind the surrounding councils in terms of recycling & green waste. Doesn't help alot of people pay no heed to what they can & can't bin, locals just fill thier refuse bins with recycling when the other is full & visa versa.

Same here in south Australia, it's shocking quality. We got a trailer load dropped off and I couldn't believe how much plastic and crap was in there and the soil became hydrophobic.

It could be a very difficult job but if more people helped out we would be in a paradise, literally

You're right. Between the stuff that goes in the recycling bin and composting, I have a small bag of trash every two weeks. Most stuff is one or the other.

How does one even start this

Where I'm at we got 3. Recycling Organics Trash

I always heard Germany has a very efficient waste management system. They even separate the glass by color. Does Germany have landfills?

He was stoked on that $20! Finaly he got the opportunity to tell the world someone threw $20 in the green bin. Man is living a good life with a great attitude.

You could start a small compost in your yard.

My city only composts yard waste but that's better than nothing.

Yeah, the plastic in there was dumb. Stupid people.

@sprock something something highly illogical *raises eyebrow*

Then I'd get fined from the randos who think my compost is a dog poop bag disposal. Lazy bastards.

Let’s create a whole governmental entity and hire thousands of people to fine people for plastic ending up in the pile. Great idea, any other big government ideas up your sleeve? 😖

@@shkibeta I don’t know, like the “big government” plan to incentivize all in San Fransisco to compost their organic waste? Which is clearly succeeding?

Problem in Edmonton is all garbage gets shipped to Riley an hour away. Lots of fossil fuels spent just in shipping.

@@Billy-qh3vp baby steps. We'll get there. Atleast we put a step forward. We have alot of people currently complaining about sorting their garbage and just complaining for the sake of complaining, so we gatta give em time to adjust lol

This is sooo common In the uk

Agreed! I was really shocked too. I've been composting for over 15 years and am absolutely meticulous about not letting even and fruit stickers go in my compost pile.

@@capicuaaahow do you dispose of the fruit sticker?

I also compost and produce very little trash as a result. I wouldn't want the compost I saw in this video on my garden.

yes definitely. it may even be able to partially or fully pay for itself with some upfront costs bc you can sell the finished compost to farmers and gardeners to make back money instead of raising taxes

Might reduce gases. Probably doesn't at all when considering the amount of energy consumed from trucks and machines to process all that.

@Kitty Holmes compost helps trap co2 in farms so it's actually pretty useful.

@Bend Over Actually, YES. I have "The Humanure Handbook" by Joe Jenkins. It's full of science. Composting is carbon negative because it uses aerobic decomposition. Landfills use anaerobic decomposition which causes methane. It's sounds like you're the one that doesn't know basic science. He's the expert.

😂 composting releases CO2 into atmosphere, man you folks are dumb

In Singapore ppl just throw everything in the general recycle bin. Baby pampers foods, etc … speechless.

in norway too. and it cost more and more to have those kind of services. and the landfill area stat own. expand, build bigger better buildings, and have park service outside the fence making everything green and tidy.

Exactly. The city of SF “incentivizes” people to compost by fining them. That’s not how incentives work.

thats just good policy

@@shkibeta But it works. Try living in a city like Jacksonville Florida where they just gave up on picking up the trash in half the city. You'll appreciate sorting your compost then.

@@shkibeta It's one of the ways incentives work. Carrot and stick are both incentives.

I thought about ducks because they are more quiet but i think someone would still report me and i would have to get rid of them or send them to the great freezer in the sky to soon

@@jaridkeen123 Just a suggestion: maybe you could try a vermicompost system. Worms and Black Soldier Flies can go through a surprising amount of food waste.

Well it is for Recology because in San Francisco we pay a waste bill to them as a utility which covers the net loss in profitability due to composting. I believe if you are business they give you a different rate based on how much of your waste is not compostable and not recyclable. In addition, businesses are required to have separate bins and charge the customer for bags, as well as no longer are allowed to have plastic straws. There is some violations, but overall I'd say compliance is pretty high and locally we've gotten used to it. I've been to the main center that processes the city waste (you have to go there if you need to dump special e waste and such. From the line of cars nearby, I think it's also where you can get back full CRV value on aluminum recycling). It's mind boggling to think that that building used to be filled to the brim with trash every day. It's nothing like that today. The people there are very friendly and morale is high. They'll even chat you up if you are okay with shouting over the sound of giant water sprays hosing down the trash. The only minus is that the execs were caught and prosecuted in a bribery and over billing scam in conjunction with many of the city officials.

Well recology allows (at least in CA) for its customers to take around 10 bags of 1.5 tons worth of compost from their local site. We get a ticket in the mail and everything. Its the same compost/fertilizer you buy at the store.

Because people in California are horrible and careless and the compost company doesn't care about it either.

Take too long to fill and recover the finished product, and the possible risk of fire given its huge size( can you imagine falling in). Plus i suspect the bottom of the pit would become anaerobic( no oxygen) ..like a landfill

I have 2 worm bins (vermicompost) and one normal non-worm compost bin. In a normal compost, it needs a lot of oxygen , which means either manually flipping over and turning the content, or force air through it like this San Francisco composting facilities. And we will get compost, which is a carbon that plant roots uses. And amount of carbon dioxide released is smaller too. In a landfill, the garbages are stacked up and it becomes anaerobic (no oxygen) and organic content will instead becomes methane, which is 25 times worse greenhouse (compared to carbon dioxide)

@@nikmohamed5906 capture that methane to be used in whatever form you can use it.

@@jonathanjones3126 yes. In some landfill, the biogas in the form of methane are collected, and then purified by removing water vapour , and then finally the methane is, used as fuel to produce energy
