Communities across the country are committed to recycling newspaper, plastic and aluminum.  The newest curbside recycling effort is food.  Communities in Seattle have programs in place that recycle food.  Chicken bones and other leftovers can be combined with yard waste and get picked up and recycled where, instead of becoming landfill they can be used as compost.  The compost can be used for the community, added to gardens and general landscaping areas, as well as be utilized by nearby farms.  Central Ohio might just be the newest part of the country to consider this recycling trend.  Gahanna Public Service Director, Terry Emery was recently quoted as saying “A food recycling program, similar to ones in Seattle and in certain California cities, merits looking into.”  It is unclear when and if this program may come to fruition but Gahanna is considering it and that is the first step.
