“We have all heard of the bottom line, but have you heard of the triple bottom line? Abbreviated 3BL, it’s also known as the three pillars or the three Ps: profit, people, and the planet. More companies are adopting the Zero Waste Business Principles developed by ZWIA, principles that encourage looking at resources in new ways.”
Mary Appelhof, Worms Eat My Garbage: How to Set Up and Maintain a Worm Composting System

“Zero Waste is a goal that is ethical, economical, efficient and visionary, to guide people in changing their lifestyles and practices to emulate sustainable natural cycles, where all discarded materials are designed to become resources for others to use. Zero Waste means designing and managing products and processes to systematically avoid and eliminate the volume and toxicity of waste and materials, conserve and recover all resources and not burn or bury them.”
Mary Appelhof, Worms Eat My Garbage: How to Set Up and Maintain a Worm Composting System

“For 7 pounds of food waste per week, I would start with 2 to 3 pounds (0.9 kg to 1.4 kg) of worms in a 6-cubic-foot worm bin.”
