May 10, 2012

Today we went to see the composting facility here at Ohio University and the eco-house. It was very interesting to see how much waste is produced my Shively and Central Foods. It is really neat that they are tripling the size of the facility to be able to compost for all facilities here. I wonder if they will have too much compost material for just the uses here at the university. I think they should sell it to local farmers. I really liked how they used the rain water for their washing purposes.
The eco-house was really cool too. I think it is neat that it gives the opportunity for students to learn about sustainability and gardening. I don't think I'd like to live so far away from campus though. I definitely want to do that when I have my own house. I thought our trip today was really cool.
