Please take our composting survey, and encourage your friends and followers to take it, too! Thank you!
Please help @JambeckResearch, @KatherineShayne, @uganewmaterials learn more about consumer composting habits and knowledge of compost certification labels. Take our survey by March 31. Learn more: https://t.co/lgK5gnZyPP. THANKS FOR SHARING!
