COMPOSTING
FOR THE COMMUNITY
Bringing composting home to an on-campus residential facility.
The aim of the project is to convert a currently empty plot of land, situated within the Scholarship Hall Community at the University of Kansas, into a compost garden.
My Goal :
By doing so, I hope to bring the issue of sustainability closer to the on-campus residential community. The results would be educational, while also giving the community a chance to prove that composting regimes could well be installed across campus, thereby bringing the university closer to it's ultimate goals of sustainability.
​
The project is also aimed at giving residents of the community a reason to care about the environment, a view on life on earth that they may well take with them into the future, whether to impart to others, or to just lead environmentally sustainable lives themselves.
​
Finally, the project would give residents of the community a chance to get out of the house on weekends and spend some time with their neighbors doing a little garden work. This would also count towards their individual community service hours, a much coveted statistic that is a deciding factor (at the end of the year) in the Best Scholarship Hall of the Year award.
