Wastefree planet, is it possible ?

What if the Wall-e scenario will be raelity on Terra ?

THe ones who have seen the apocalyptical Pixar animation, Wall-e shure were fascinated by the future tech and also that we haven`t managed to eliminate those waste-mountains. But this robod is a typical pioneer and sensible "electronic creature", which programm is to compress waste.

If the trend of producing waste is growing together with increase of population, than it`ll be impossible to recicle everything and a total jam of matherials transfer and infrastructure kind of issue will put people on strike and will couse a massive reufgee or a civil war.

We don`t want this ! We can survive ONLY with recycling, reusing anddispose the matherial after it`s life time in biodegradable compost.

It also has an effect on the future genration of young people who will never get out of the junk to get a real job. If we won`t produce so much awste, there would not be mountains of waste, that are a gold mine for undeveloped countries, were the lowers salary is $1 to $2 a day (not even hour). If we don`t reduce this production, bying less and trying to have our own garden or to by localy from local producers and recycle metal plastic (PVC, PET, PV, bakelite, rubber, nylon, etc.), paper (newspaper, fax, copypaper, cardboard, PFL MDF, wood spikes, "wood dust")

There is also a menthality problem with compost: if animal and human waste are gathered and combined with the agriculture soil, than I will eat my own *hit ?

Soil take the principal role in our life, it`s the fundation of leaving plants, life stock and a reservoire of C (carbon).

If a bio-waste is burned, the ashes combined with plant rests and some unfertile soil, than this mixture will increse the nacrofage bacterials that decompose the components of these ingredients.

So please keep clean and try to make compost to reuse biodegradablee waste.

How to start an indoor HERBgarden !

Indoor herbs usually bite the dust for one main reason: too much water. It's important to remember that many herbs grow wild in the dry, spare soils of the Mediterranean. Get out of the habit of watering your herbs on a schedule, and instead only water them when needed. The best way to find out if they need water is to stick your pointer finger into the soil of each pot. When the soil is dry down to your second knuckle, it's time to water.

Bring each herb's pot over to your sink and pour in a slow, steady stream of water near the base of the plant. Stop watering when you see water running out the bottom of the pot. Allow the pot to drain for 10 to 15 minutes.

The air inside homes tends to be dry in winter, especially if the house is heated with forced air. Low humidity causes problems for Mediterranean herbs because they prefer humid air (even though they like dry soil). To provide your herbs with extra humidity, fill a metal or plastic tray with flat pebbles. Set your herbs' pots directly on top of the pebbles, then fill the tray with water, making sure that the waterline stays below the bottom of the herbs' pots. As the water evaporates, it will humidify the air around your herbs. Refill the water as needed, usually about every 3 days.

Keep your herbs in a bright south or west-facing window that gets at least 6 hours of sunlight a day. Or even better, give the herbs an optimal amount of light by placing them under a florescent light for 14 hours a day. Keep the light about 2 inches above the tops of the plants.
