Just put the bedding in the bottom and the kitchen scraps, covered by bedding in the top. Some wormery compost making systems use vertical trays, some use horizontal trays and some don't use any trays, but they all work quite well. Even dog poop can be put in a separate wormery compost making system. The worms will eat the poop and give you great castings for your ornamental garden."

I read the article about trash in the ocean. Plastic is such a wonderful thing, but because it doesn't decompose it becomes problematic for the environment.

Thanks for the information. The trash in the ocean caught my eye.. just watched a Korean News Broadcast there they are making clothes from their plastic garbage. AMAZING...Love to the eco friendly business people leading the charge. I know the idea probably sounds strange (it did to me) but the clothes are very popular and you cannot tell it comes from plastic. I will be looking for more of your posts.

Thanks for your regular posting these eco-friendly tips... making our life eco-friendly is the only circumstance due to which it'll be possible to survive in the modern ecology of the world!

Great collection of the articles, I should say! I even used some of them as tips to research papers.

Great list of useful articles. Thanks for sharing. My hometown is currently using wind energy and I would say the air there is really fresh and clean!
