(d) Explain what you completed.
I attempted to complete a compost. However after I already got over zealous on my project, I noticed that it takes months for worms to break down the food.... so I would have needed a lot more worms to get the dirt that I was going for.

This project made me realize how difficult my first answer to my EQ was. I thought it was a slam dunk get rid of food waste, but it turned out to be far more difficult than I anticipated and more time consuming. Some may think its easy to get rid of food waste, but it takes hours to up keep a compost and a lot of people aren't willing to dedicate that type of time.
