A few steps makes a big difference. Compost rather then trash it

Since we launched our initiative 4MyCiTy has diverted over 15 Million Pounds of Organic waste from landfills and Incinerators to our compost sites. This is equivalent to 17114 cars being taken off the roads and an astonishing 6606 metric tons of harmful Co2E avoided.

Would you be interested in a composting drop off in Hamilton Baltimore with a flower boquita pick up. Where youharvest your own? I’m gauging interest to see if this is something viable

Our Partner 4mycity.us is up to some really cool things.

They are creating a sustainable composting facility right in Baltimore! Currently, composting happens on a small scale in bmore a little at farmers markets, local farms, back yards and composting pick up that's taken outside of the city to PG county. This facility will enable jobs to be created locally, soil to improve locally and reduce transportation waste locally.

What this means for bmore: access to resources improves for city residents, air quality improves, greenhouse gas emissions reduced, additional CO2 stored in bmore soils (rather than the air), city benefits from tax revenue from local business.

Why we want composting local: if it leaves the city those are jobs leaving the city, its tax revenue leaving the city, its accesses to resources leaving the city

It takes a diversity of solutions to combat environmental programs and I'm excited that 4mycity is taking the initiative to do so. They are leading an example of not waiting for someone else or the government to take action but looking at how we can all take action individually and as a community to create positive change and systems for our cities that create community resilience and interconnectivity

"“You don’t have to be some person that’s spent hundreds of thousands of dollars to go to college for however many years to do this stuff,” Padilla-Brown says. “You can just be some high school dropout person and do the most cutting-edge science.”
Padilla-Brown’s accolades read like a scholar’s fantasy: He published the first English-language handbook on how to cultivate Cordyceps militaris, the fungus famous for its medicinal properties; he founded his own mushroom cultivation and research lab, Mycosymbiotics; he leads community mushroom foraging and cultivation classes nationwide; he teaches his friends microbiology"
