<\/div>\r\n\"\"<\/a>We are excited to announce the release of three short videos highlighting the economic, enviro<\/span>nmental, and social benefits of community composting, <\/span>created by ILSR\u2019s Composting for Community Initiative for the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. To accompany the videos, EPA has created a <\/span>Community Composting<\/a> page with the help of ILSR. This is a significant step towards national recognition of the importance of community composting and EPA\u2019s commitment to equitable climate and soil solutions that put community benefits first.\r\n\r\nThese short, accessible videos posted on EPA\u2019s YouTube channel showcase the diversity of location, age, size, community, and operation of community composters. Feel free to share with your network, embed in your website, and use in your training materials. We also developed a series of graphics highlighting these same benefits, to be downloaded and used with attribution. <\/span>\r\n\r\n \r\n

Local Environmental Benefits<\/span><\/h2>\r\n\"\"<\/a>\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nThe environmental benefits<\/strong> of community composting include reduction of food waste, soil rejuvenation, carbon sequestration, emission reductions, building climate resilience, and more.\r\n\r\nThis video features footage and interviews from BK ROT, Baltimore Compost Collective, Compost Crew, Hidden Harvest Farm, Radix Ecological Sustainability Center, and ECO City Farms\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n
