Start Composting With Lomi
Earth Day alert! We can talk all we want, but when it comes to action, here is something you can do: start composting.
Composting is the practice of using organic items – food waste, most often – to create material that contributes to plant growth when added to the soil. According to the EPA, “Food scraps and yard waste together currently make up more than 30 percent of what we throw away, and could be composted instead. Making compost keeps these materials out of landfills where they take up space and release methane, a potent greenhouse gas.”
You may think it’s practically impossible to start composting if you live in the city, in a small apartment. It’s different in the suburbs or country.
There is some truth to that, sure, but with a device like Lomi, you can start composting wherever you are.
Think about it. What do you do with food waste like leftover meals that have gone bad or fruit and vegetable peelings? More likely than not, you throw them away.
What if, instead of simply throwing them away to be brought to the landfill, you can make compost at a touch of a button?
That’s what Lomi does.
No fuss. No smell. Just nutrient-rich compost, which is perfect if you are an urban gardener.
With this device, you can reduce up to 50% of your waste. This translates to your carbon footprint reduction, showing some love for Mother Earth.
All you need to do to start composting is make it a habit to put your food scraps and other organic material into Lomi.
