Report: Compost for the City

The outcome of Compost for the City - Consumers' Rights Association, Mersin

We are from Consumers Rights Association's in Mersin. We're looking for solutions to make organic surface of the cities into the compost. In 2005,we started the project for compost and our movement centers are our schools and women. For separates organic items for compost, we have communicated NGOs, organizations, associations, foundations, some places which supply food only. We gave them seminars have to separate organic surface for compost. Also, we applied some examples in schools. Now, we've signature campaign municipalities to support and take responsibility. We continued this project along with universities. ETO( Organic Agree-Cultural Organizations) and ECOTAR ( Control and Certificate of Ecological Agree-Cultural Organizations). During the workshop, we have listened and learned experiences about compost from foreigner participator which are very important infos we believe. For example, in the santral separation compost building. If the oxygen level pass the %50, there might be an explosion.
