You know last year when when the mayor cut composting, the council fought back to restore it to $6,600,000.

And as part of that, we funded $500,000 to Cafeteria Cultures so that you guys can learn about what composting means so you can make a difference in your own neighborhoods.

And you guys are already making a difference.
