Commit to Composting

From Yahoo! News: California encourages bringing worms to work.

Always on the cutting edge of all things environmental, California is encouraging public and private-sector employees to bring worms to work so that the creatures can chew up apple cores, sandwich scraps and other lunch leftovers and produce compost.

The state's Integrated Waste Management Board is so serious about this that it has posted on its Web site a list of top 10 ways to recycle on the job, and No. 2 is: "Keep worms in your office."

I suspect that my employer would not approve if I brought some of my worms to work and kept them under my desk.
