Ever wonder what happens when organic waste ends up in lakes, like Machado Lake?

Too much waste causes too many nutrients in the water, leading to algae blooms, low oxygen and stressed-out fish.🐟💨

Keeping our lakes clean benefits all of us! 🌍

Much like Sabato Rodia was able to reuse porcelain, glass and found objects to create the Watts Towers, we can do our part to reuse food scraps at home! ♻️

The opportunities are endless! 🥒🍎☕

Maritime history tells the story of our deep connection to the ocean - from early fishing communities to global seafood trade routes.🚢⚓

Composting seafood waste helps protect the ocean ecosystems that early mariners depended on.🐠

Lights. Camera. Compost! 🌟

We know how to eat organic, but do you know what happens after the meal? Even behind the scenes, organic waste has a starring role - in your green bin! 🎬

Real stars are helping us turn scraps into soil!

The Hollywood Sign is the ultimate LA landmark, but not everything we leave behind is as iconic. 📸

Food waste in landfills creates methane, a harmful greenhouse gas. When you compost, you're giving organic waste a second act! ♻️

Back in the Old American West, folks used what they had and wasted little. 🌵🥔

Today, tossing food scraps in the green bin is our way of living with that same frontier wisdom—using what we can and giving back to the land.

Make a mess after enjoying your hot dog from Pinks? 🌭

No worries! Your food stained paper trays and napkins can be placed in the green bin to be composted. ♻️

After visiting the Korean Friendship Bell, I enjoyed an outdoor meal overlooking the water! 🔔🌅

When enjoying your own snacks at your local park, remember to toss any food waste and food soiled paper into your green bin at home.

If you're wondering about disposing of fish waste, it can go in your green bin. This includes fish bones and seafood scraps like soft shells from crabs, shrimp or crawfish! 🍤🐟 Not hard shells like clams!

At the zoo, every animal has a role in the circle of life. 🐘🍌

When we sort our food scraps into the green bin, we’re part of that same natural cycle—giving back to the Earth so it can keep caring for all creatures, great and small.

Exploring Little Tokyo, where tradition meets talent—just like Robert Vargas’ epic Shohei Ohtani mural! ⚾🌸

Let’s start a new tradition at home: proper food waste disposal. It’s a home run for the planet! 🌍!

Much like El Pueblo preserves the traditions of the earliest Angelenos for current generations, the green bin helps give our food a second life—as compost to grow new crops. ♻️
