Composting in Hanover
Hanover households have several options to avoid sending food waste to produce polluting gases in landfill. For residents with the space, backyard composting is an excellent way to recycle food scraps into a valuable soil resource. Interested in learning how to do this successfully?
Getting to Hanover
I came to Hanover in part to plug directly into sustainability issues. I've worked on these in the past, installing electric vehicle charges in South Orange way back in 2013, creating plastic bag recycling programs, reducing energy usage in buildings, greening fleets and so much more. Now, Hanover has gone well above and beyond what most communities have done, especially from an energy standpoint. But now I have to make a decision: where will I put my energy (sorry, bad jokes come with me) on sustainability issues in Hanover?
I Hate to Waste Food
Rummaging through my refrigerator, I came upon a pear. It was a beautiful yellow-green when I stored in the fridge to eat later. Unfortunately, later never came—or rather, when it did, the pear was a mass of brown pulp. Yuck. I hate to waste food.
