Here is video excerpts from our previously posted audio interview with author, Sophie Uliano. Our apologies for doubling up on content, it’s the first time we tried video taping a spot on the radio show. Given the time constraints of the TV show we had to edit things down. Consider it a behind the scenes look at the radio show if nothing else 
Advice so nice we had to air it twice…

Here come the leaves! While you’re out picking up Mother Nature’s doin’s, take the opportunity to give back to your soil by composting. At the most basic, you can use a mulching lawnmower to mow your way to a healthier yard (and save yourself some backbreaking labor). With a little more effort you can collect your leaves to use as your “Browns” stock all year long. The golden rule of compost is 50% Greens / 50% Browns layered together like a lasagna. Sprinkle in finished compost as the “Cheese” to get things started. Whenever you add food waste (Greens) add a shovel full of your leaves (Browns) to control smells and insects. Turn once a week.
Yard trimmings and food residuals together constitute 23 percent of the U.S. waste stream, as documented by EPA. An estimated 56.9 percent of yard trimmings were recovered for composting or grasscycled in 2000, a dramatic increase from the 12 percent recovery rate in 1990.

Our friends at William Paterson University WP88.7 FM have invited us up to the station for a recurring environmental spot every other Tuesday. Connie won’t be able to share in the fun this semester as she is working toward her teaching certificate, but Greg got a chance to talk some politics… See our blog posts (links below) for more on the Bills discussed.
