Everyone Should Compost
Over the past few years, composting in Oregon has become more and more normal and yet, so many people still do not compost, even me sometimes. The benefits of composting provide so much to our world, including more fertilization for our organically grown food and better use of our food waste. By not composting, our environment is affected by not giving our soil, which is used to grow our organic foods, the nutrients it needs to prosper these seeds. For us, individually, composting helps to bring us those organic foods as well as helping us to not waste food, but reuse it in a good way. One of the major problems I’ve heard about when people have said they do not compost is because “it is an inconvenience.” Composting does take a few extra seconds to walk over to the compost bin and dump the uneaten food into it, but it doesn’t take that long. Now a few seconds adding up can be a while but I believe it is worth it for the benefits that composting brings to the environment and to ourselves, and our community is worth the extra few seconds. But for those people who believe they cannot waste those few seconds a few times a day, we’ll take it slow.
