Thank you. You have REDUCED the amount of NEW C02 going in the air. But you have not removed any that's already there.
Removing C02 does not cost anything. You don't need to be a chemist. It will take a bit of of your time. Mother Nature does most of the complicated work. We just need to....bury the evidence...kinda.
You remember how plants take C02 and make sugar. Not just sugar. Plants are concentrated C02. When the plant dies, the C02 goes back up into the air....That's the carbon cycle.
Composting used to be about making good soil. But research has shown us that if we do it just right, we end up capturing the compost and bury it in the ground for decades. We have over 100 kg of Carbon to process and store.
We need to prepare the material to ensure the most Carbon remains and that it is locked up. Your main skill...holding a shovel, and followng a recipe.
Give us a few hours of tjme. Get some fresh air. Get some exercise. You wil meet your neighbors and gain the benefits of what is called Forest Bathing. That means better physical and mental health.
Pass on what we teach you. You will be reversing Global Warming.

About Cascade Patch Community Garden
Location:
Thomas & Minor, Seattle, WA 98109, US
Mission Statement
We are one of 88 Community Gardens run by the Seattle Department of Neighborhoods. We have created an urban oasis in the middle of South Lake Union for individuals to produce healthy food, interact, build community and provide recreational opportunities.
Description
Each gardener leases a small plot from the city for their own use and puts in extra time to maintain the entire garden and community areas. If you are interested in your own plot search for Seattle P-Patch on the Internet.
We need additional volunteers to help maintain the food we raise for the food banks, and for the common areas. It's a quiet place to have lunch, or where some friends meet for tai chi, and an escape from concrete boxes nearby. Your help is needed to keep up this public garden, demonstrate good land use, prevent run-off, and provide habitat for native bees and songbirds.
Check out our monthly work parties as listed on the shed, or let us coordinate a day for your group.
