Appreciation post: My neighbor's compost bin changed my mind

I saw him dump a bucket of coffee grounds in his bin in the alley last month and asked if it was worth the hassle. He just said, 'It's not about the bin, it's about the bag you don't buy.' I've been thinking about that single-use plastic thing ever since. Anyone have a good starter guide for a small yard?

Wasn't there a study about how food scraps in landfills make a lot of methane? Composting at home cuts that down big time. That neighbor's quote really hits the main point.

Actually used to think it was pointless until I saw those numbers.
