    Stopped using a plastic lining for our compost bin.  Wish Burrtec picked up food waste.  Using the garbage disposal more.  Is that good?

      great question! I think that it is better, as it gets decomposed in the same manner as our, um, digestive by products do too. It certainly keeps it out of the landfill. I wonder if we could each bring our organics to places that do accept them for decomposition?

    Participating in this challenge does make me more aware of my imprint on the environment.  Also, it has increased my awareness of what others are NOT doing.
