participating in forward-thinking eco-centered recycling
programs for many years. It's time we took the next step
and considered community composting. We've done a great
job with paper, aluminum, glass, and plastic, but now it's time
to address food waste head on. The latest data shows that of
the millions of tons of food scraps discarded every year, only
a small percentage less than 6 percent—is kept out of
landfills.

waste is more difficult than composting food waste.

a threat to the community than aluminum waste.
The author wants to illustrate that paper and glass
recycling has reduced the amount of waste in landfills.

be addressed in the same way as other waste.
