We're hanging out with Sloan today! I am starting my compost today to help so I can get my sustainable garden planned for next year.
All you need is grass clipping, dead leaves and branches and you can create rich rich soil
Nice! My family has a large bucket in the backyard where we throw all our foods we can compost instead of throwing them in the garbage. My mom gardens so she uses the soil in the Summer.
I have a bunch of tupper in my basement so I'm going to drill holes in it and I hope that works.
You have a bunch of tupper where? (Sorry, couldn't resist.)
Yeah my parents have that too, if you have a garden is a good idea to have one of those.
Awesome to hear that you are composting! I'm lucky that we have compost pick-up throughout my neighborhood (in Brooklyn, NY), but there's something so especially pure about contributing your own compost back into your own yard.
@peter just a heads up that NYC compost collection is on pause until June 2021. Really quite devastating -- if you have the room, I highly recommend freezing your food scraps in compostable bags so you can bring them to the farmer's market when compost pick up resumes there. They're two different orgs so I'm pretty sure the farmers market one will open up much sooner.
@andrewbrown high-five!! COMPOSTING RULES.

TwilioQuest has a goal of planting 10,000 trees to support reforestation efforts in Australia with their "Earth Day 2020" challenge.
I appreciate you highlighting things folks can do for Earth Day, today and every day!
I try my best on a personal level to make good choices for the environment -- my household composts, tries to avoid single-use plastic as much as possible, and I have been vegan for 7 years. Your diet can have a huge impact on the resources you use, so that's definitely an area to look into. Even one additional meatless meal a week does wonders! :)
Didn't mean to double up here, but figured I'd create a discussion thread specifically for this!
Any conservation foundations or initiatives that you'd recommend others look into?

Devs do Brasil, vamos apoiar os nossos abrigos de animais, seja doando dinheiro ou outras coisas que ajudam, seja divulgando ou até adotando um animalzinho (se você tiver certeza que pode cuidar dele).
Vou colocar uma aqui que ajudo todo mês, mas por favor comenta as que conhecerem também.

Tomorrow have a couple interesting apps in open source, one is a personal carbon footprinting tool that integrates with existing services (e.g. to include the carbon footprint of your Uber journey) and another that maps electricity emissions in your country.
