Bes I have 5 trash cans in my kitchen each a different size, serving different functions. It has helped me reuse recycle and minimize the amount of garbage my family expels. My idea is a trashcan that takes all food scraps and grinds them down to a juice. This juice can be used in our own gardens, can be collected by a company and sold for profit, or whatever its purposes. I urge businesses to do the same with all the food they throw away (required; instead of using it to feed the poor) Lets go world. Invent, build and share for free...make it happen. Open a door of blessings from God for not wasting his bounty.
