00:00:00,560 --> 00:00:13,699
In this way, we are doing a compost project into international program Global Scholar.

2
00:00:13,699 --> 00:00:29,699
We want to involve the whole school community and we will explain you what compost is, how it is made and what you need to do.

3
00:00:29,699 --> 00:00:34,700
The Gorbos bin is placed in our school orchard.

4
00:00:36,700 --> 00:00:38,700
What is compost for?

5
00:00:38,700 --> 00:00:49,700
The compost is our natural transformation process of organic waste that turns into nutrients and serves to fertilize the land.

6
00:00:50,700 --> 00:00:53,700
How is it made? We can divide our...

7
00:00:53,700 --> 00:01:04,489
Green waste is grass clippings, coffee grounds or tea bags.

8
00:01:05,489 --> 00:01:18,489
Brown waste is dry plant material, eggshells, little pieces of cardboard, but it's important to place green waste and brown waste in different layers.

9
00:01:18,489 --> 00:01:24,489
The compost is ready to use when it is dry and crumbly and also has an earthy smell.

10
00:01:26,489 --> 00:01:32,489
The volume of the pile is reduced around half and the organic items are not looked for.

11
00:01:32,489 --> 00:01:37,489
This process can take from one month to a year.

12
00:01:37,489 --> 00:01:41,489
What type of waste can we put into the compost bin?

13
00:01:41,489 --> 00:01:58,489
You can put grass clippings, tree leaves, goofy grounds, lettuce, potato peels, banana peels, paper without ink, avocado skin and egg shells.

14
00:01:58,489 --> 00:02:17,569
We have to keep all this out of the compost bin. Meat, fish, dairy products, oil, plastic, metal, pet food, colored paper, coal, any chemical substances, dishes, plants or cooked food.

15
00:02:17,569 --> 00:02:28,259
You are going to have a trash bin like this in your break time, to put your compostable waste in it.

16
00:02:28,259 --> 00:02:36,259
It's got a poster at the top so that you always know what to put and what to keep out of it.

17
00:02:38,259 --> 00:02:48,860
At the end of the break time, together with a teacher, you will have to go to the compost bin,

18
00:02:48,860 --> 00:03:16,030
where you have to throw the collected waste.

19
00:03:16,030 --> 00:03:21,030
After, you clean your little bin with water

20
00:03:21,030 --> 00:03:25,030
and use that water to irrigate the plants.

21
00:03:25,030 --> 00:03:44,810
Finally, you take your bin to the whole of your building

22
00:03:44,810 --> 00:03:48,430
to use it again the next day.
