Composting Can Save City Money

Councillor Chris Titus says composting can not only help out mother nature but city coffers as well.

Titus chairs the Fundy Region Solid Waste Commission and he tells CHSJ News hauling compost costs 28 dollars a tonne as opposed to 108 dollars a tonne for regular trash.

He says composting presents a unique opportunity for residents as it is one of the few things residents can do to directly save the city money.
The waste commission recently receiving provincial dollars to help promote composting in the city.
