*Aerobic Composting—the Good Way to Decompose Your Food Waste
*Did you know that aerobic composting is way better for the planet than anaerobic composting? When you send your food waste to the landfill, it decomposes anaerobically, meaning without the help of oxygen to aid the decomposition process. On the other hand, when you put your food waste in the yard waste bin, it goes to Cedar Grove in Everett which decomposes your food waste aerobically (with oxygen).  Aerobic decomposition still produces CO2, but it produces much less CH4 than anaerobic decomposition. Plus, you’re making rich compost to go back into the earth and you’re not taking up limited landfill space. Read and learn more here. [ https://www.kenmorewa.gov/Home/Components/News/News/331/301 ]*

*Innovative Approach to Pandemic Learning Loss:
*"*A Partnership Between the City of Kenmore and Cascadia College
*"The City of Kenmore and Cascadia College are launching an innovative program this fall to alleviate learning loss that resulted from the COVID-19 pandemic’s disruptions in education. This new partnership between Kenmore and Cascadia, which was made possible using federal grant money from the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) will bring approximately 100 Kenmore juniors and seniors from area high schools to the Cascadia campus in Bothell every Wednesday on early release days beginning this fall quarter for academic classes designed to help students cover content they missed during the pandemic. It will culminate with a two-week summer academy in 2024. Read the full press release. [ https://lnks.gd/2/2JMR63n ]
