We are excited to share EPA’s new community composting videos, which have been posted to their new Community Composting webpage. EPA and the Institute for Local Self-Reliance (ILSR) developed these videos to highlight the environmental, economic, and social benefits of community composting. Aspects of Radix Center’s Community Compost Initiative are featured in each of these videos.
