Compost and Landscapes Volunteer Global Green is evaluating opportunities for increased compost use in urban areas. We'd like to do a few impactful pilots with landscapers, real estate companies and other private sector or non-profit actors to show what is possible. Global Green is seeking to work with volunteers who: 1) Are interested in assessing compost use opportunities in their apartment building or commercial property 2) Have civil engineering, landscaping, and/or soil science backgrounds and can provide technical support to the project.
