My father is quiet most of the time. There is one thing that gets him excited. Just say the word "garbage" to him! Or I should say, he is very interested in dealing with (处理) the garbage problem.
Last year, my father decided to do something about all the wasted food we were throwing away. Each family wastes a large amount of food yearly——nearly 0. 25 ton. We usually throw away the unfinished rice, dishes, and more.
However, there is something we can do with it. If we properly deal with food waste, it can be changed into a kind of rich, dark earth known as compost. This compost can be added to vegetable gardens to make the plants grow really well.
To deal with food waste in my family, my father came up with a good idea: Instead of throwing away all our food waste, we put it into the compost bin (储物箱). Mother Nature will slowly turn it from garbage into earth. Three months later, we were surprised to find that it was full of rich compost material (材料)!
Next time you eat outside, just order what you need. Similarly, just make what you need at home when cooking. This also helps to avoid wasting food. Do you have any other ideas? Think about it.
