Basics of Bio Composting
An expansive workshop to cater to the composting requirement of your organization/ school/ housing society/ institution. This will cover all the basics of composting, why do it? How and where to do composting? Along with other services that RUR GreenLife offers. Our waste comprises broadly of biodegradable and non-degradable waste. Biodegradable waste can be turned into compost, while non degradable waste can be recycled. However, this is only if this waste segregated, if not the waste loses its value and simply lands up in a landfill.

Thinking about caring, loving and working towards the environment is all that RUR promotes and we at CNM have the same vision. For this very particular reason, we tied up with Ms. Monisha Narke who conducted a lot of eco workshops for our students through the GAAP program and we have benefited a lot through them.
