WELLNESS TIP: Students can encourage school administrators to approve Lunchtime Composting Program to lessen trash

Green schools Kids can take a proactive step by creating or joining a "green team" at their school. Once they have a parent or teacher adviser, the kids can take steps to create or promote the school's recycling program. If your city or county offers composting services, students can encourage school administrators to approve a lunchtime composting program. That way, food waste won't end up in a landfill but instead will be turned into a reusable pile of organic-matter compost. http://news.yahoo.com/happy-earth-day-5-ways-kids-help-planet-155320927.html
