Visited my twin @lata_roddam last weekend and had a blast with her granddaughters. Lata is an epitome of patience and creativity. Her garden is built with the tons of compost she makes 🖤🖤. She collects every seed pod, stick and any trash she sees and converts them into something beautiful. She has magic in her hands. This is what sustainability looks like in real life. Nothing is waste.. all the leaves and flowers that trees shed around her street goes into her composting. Her granddaughters are very blessed to have her teaching sustainability the best way—by living it.

Grateful for the quiet miracle happening in my compost bin.#internationalcompostawarenessweek #compostmagic

True confessions from a composting addict, our founder @odettekatrak : “I started composting in June 2016, because I saw a composter MRP ₹2200 slashed to ₹500, and I am a sucker for good deals!” She continues: so my initial reason wasn’t the pure environment angle, but composting soon grew on me, as my interest in reducing waste had already begun. And a growing concern for our environment made this feel like a product I should bring into my home. All these reasons I’ve listed in this carousel are what held me back initially. In my very first cycle, I overfilled the composter and leachate leaked onto the floor overnight. It was a reason for the family to say get rid of it. I persisted and both the composter and I happily live on in the same home ☺️. And I am constantly encouraging more people to start composting, including apartment level interventions. I started doing anaerobic composting with Smartbin from GreenTech life, and now do aerobic composting using both #GobbleMini from @dailydumpcompost and #Ebony from @endlessly_green In this carousel, I have also included reasons given by many others for not wanting to compost. Here’s the good news: each of them is not actually a valid reason. If you do it right, not a single one of these becomes a reason, but remains an excuse. So please just take this simple step forward and start composting. Indeed composting is the most powerful climate action anyone can take right in their home. Bringing in the smell of fresh mountain earth into your home is a joyful experience. You are magically transforming waste that could potentially stink and generate methane adding to climate change, to fertile manure that enriches the soil. So many reasons to start composting if you aren’t yet doing so. So go for it, everyone! Start composting. Spread composting fever. Let’s show our love for our planet. Do share your experiences in the comments. And feel free to reach out for suggestions or support, because all those on this collab post are composting experts with the aim of making every home a composting home! #Composting #Climateaction #SustainableLiving

Twelve caterpillars (11male +1 female). Countless moments of awe. Today the final winged soul flew away into the morning light.. I didn’t raise butterflies. I simply protected tiny lives long enough for them to remember they could fly.
