Talking about how we could engage with Nathan & the county in regards to the email in the post by Syd here titled Waste/Compost in Stevens County in the Discussion category
Talking about how we could engage with our group & have more discussion throughout the summer
Discussion on write-up in stevens county times now that the things mentioned in the email are hip-happening
Simply a friendly check in with folks who are doing the good work
decide date for next meeting due to 4th July clash
Given the list of topics to discuss we combined them into one main discussion and decided to write an article/letter to the editor about composting. The article should include:
a little history about what people have done locally in the past with their food scraps/compostable waste,
look at when/why things changed (if we can find details)
talk about the current situation where we are paying for compostables to be dealt with in the waste system
look to the future where these items can/will be diverted from the waste steam, saving us money, protecting our environment etc.
With the first Saturday of July being the fourth we decided to reschedule our meeting to Saturday 11th July. An on-line meeting will be scheduled and the link shared in about a week.
PS If you have suggestions for our article/letter on composting please share in the comments below. Many thanks.
This will be a check-in mostly to see how things are going and to see if there are things we can do in the new circumstances to aid work fighting climate change.
Are there changes to the discourse that would help?
