Waste is one abundant gross national product, not only here in the Philippines, but of course, globally. We produce and mismanage it in obscene proportions ... because we not only lack discipline as Filipinos, but also sufficient funds to properly implement our laws. At M Tadeja Consultancy,   we see wastes as resources for livelihood and everyday development not only for our soils, but in harmony with nature. Biodegradable materials can be immediately used in our gardens to nourish our soils, then plants.  We incorporate waste in our gardening to easily and immediately reduce our wastes as we continue finding ways to shorten or make easier the biodegrade process (skip composting altogether).

And these are often superfoods that not only fill stomachs but nourishes our gut and heal illnesses - known and to come. I only have limited time now to pursue fruit tree-planting missions with my fellow Bituen Eco Volunteers , but I have started requiring all my environmental science students to plant fruits trees in their homes and comm...
