In line with its Environmental Sustainability Policy, Rhodes 老虎机游戏_pt老虎机-平台*官网 strives to promote opportunities, initiatives and measures that enable the university to minimise its waste generation wherever possible, promote re-use, recycling and composting.
Kitchen waste and garden waste are biodegradable. Why throw it away when it can be recycled into valuable compost and other useful by-products that improve the soil ... a big plus for gardening and food security.

Garden compost heap: Use a small area in your garden for green waste, and keep it damp - this readily attracts indigenous earthworms (which burrow in the soil). More info Garden compost heap
