CARBON FOOTPRINTS


It's my intention to complete a mini-project as part of my blog which will:-

1. Establish the carbon footprint of our current lifestyle; and
2. Review all kinds of methods that I can use to reduce our carbon footprint.

To track posts directly relating to this project only, hit the label "Carbon Footprint"....

A Worm Farm for Como Children

Having got involved with the Daycare Centre that looks after my daughter, Cate, I offered to help them with some environmental projects, the first being a worm farm.

ok, ok, it's a bit rough around the edges but it's a start!

Looking to make some progress with it this week if Joe, the owners' partner is around to assist.

Will keep you posted!

Worm Farms

What a great way to contribute towards reducing carbon emissions....

- Feed organic waste to your worms (instead of contributing to land fill where it would generate nasty methane!)
- Have the worms produce a great compost for the garden
- There's also something called worm "juice" or "tea" which is a fantastic fertiliser
- and the whole thing can be contained in a box not much bigger than a shoe box.

It's only a small contribution but the kids love it and can learn a lot from it!
