California Bio-Mass offers you a way to reduce, reuse and recycle the precious resources we have in California. California Bio-Mass' products are created from yard trimmings, foodwaste, wood waste and materials that otherwise would have been landfilled.
The benefits to all of us include:
-
Reduced landfills - Cities, counties and municipalities have goals to reduce the waste entering landfills by as much as 70%. Composting is proving to be practical, environmentally friendly solution.
-
Reduced greenhouse gases - Composting organic waste decreases the amount of methane gas generated in landfills/open waste sites.
-
Reduced pathogenic organisms, harmful insects, and weed seeds - The relatively high temperature at which compost is "cooked" kills harmful bacteria such as E-coli and salmonella, weed seeds and insects.
-
Reduced need for commercial fertilizers - By using compost, you reduce the amount of commercial fertilizer used, reducing the reliance on petroleum-based fertilizers.
-
Enriched soil - Compost adds nutrients, helps maintain the correct soil Ph, increases water retention, reduces water runoff and increases the nutrients actually available to the plants.
