    The beginning of this years quarantine got me bored and enlightened so I decided to start a compost in a part of my yard. Not very large by any means, but man is it eye opening the amount of potential compostables that go in the trash that could be reused to nourish your soil. Even letting the grass grow a little longer and collecting those clippings is a huge nitrogen boost to compost.

    Here in Germany food waste, composting and recycling has already been a big thing for many years! Seeing this just gives it the attention it should always get! Buy fruits and vegetables without plastic rap, recycle, get a compost and buy local! It just makes the cooking experience whole! Great video, It‘s Alive!

    Forget the negative folks. Throw their thoughts in the compost heep of your life and let that garbage turn into something useful. Let it make you stronger.......like Allicin. Which I've heard is like a two-part epoxy.

    YES!!! Oh my god I'm so happy! I missed Brad and It's Alive so so so sooooooooooooooooooooooooo much! Ahhhh what wonderful news!
    Also, what an interesting episode to come back with! Really shined a light on an aspect of our day to day that we most likely ignore or don't know much about. As always with this show, could make anything engaging and interesting. Going to miss the recipes and fermentation, but as long as brad's on the screen, the intro music plays, and the snappy funny editing is still the same--then I'm happy. I'm very, very happy. Thank you so much.

      I get that. Corona is a new virus that almost nobody has antibodies for and we really dont want to all get sick at the same time.

    • @Peacefrogg
      @Peacefrogg 4 ปีที่แล้ว +11

      Commenter the masks are not there to not get sick. We wear them to not all get sick AT THE SAME TIME. I hate them too, but when i can’t keep my distance i wear mine. Not to protect myself or the persons near me. I do it just for one reason. If too many people get complications hospitals will flood with patients.

    I live in Finland and every single apartment building has their own recycling spot outside with own bins for everything. Been like this for all 30 years I have been alive. I remember as a small kid returning bottles to the machine in the grocery store so I could buy more candy. 99% of bottles in Finland are returned to shop. 40c for the big ones, 20c small ones and 15c for cans.
    So I'm kinda shocked that it's such a special thing in the US. I remember when I was in the US it was like time travelling (60y into the past).
