Creative Recycling

On January 10th, my class started the worm bin for recycling leftover fruits, veggies, egg shells, etc. from their lunches. As of now, it's nice and stinky, creating enriched nitrogen from the worm castings. (nature's poop)

Now take a look at this....

Yep, it's an old air conditioner.

Now look into the top of it, what do you see...Isn't this the most creative compost bin you've ever seen! I give Eddie the credit for coming up with this idea. He was able to get this old unit from a business neighbor. The air conditioning company has no use for these old units, except to sell as scrap. I love that I can recycle scrap into something positive!
Saving the world, one idea at a time.
