Yes compost. Yes Barcelona. In this 5th floor apartment, in the middle of the city, we are composting. I noticed the brown bins in the street a month or so ago, and then when Juanjo went to do some municipal paperwork he picked up the basket and the bags (which are made from potatoes, and biodegradable). He told me the woman began explaining how to compost, and he quickly reassured her that his wife knew what to do. For those of you who don’t know, I grew up composting. Long before people were talking about composting to save the environment, my parents were composting to use the soil for their garden. Since living in cities, I’ve had a guilty conscience about NOT composting. So it was very exciting the day Juanjo showed up with the pail and we started sending out food scraps back into usable earth, instead of landfills.<\/p>\n
