I come from Japan, currently studying Education Policy and International Development at the University of Bristol. I wanted to try something out myself addressing environmental issues while I study how to incorporate sustainability in education.
My challenge
I would like to try fitting my one month waste in two jars. (food/other waste)

Since my food waste is almost filling up my jar, I started to think about making my own compost. 

However, at the end of the day I came to think that this is going to be quite difficult again since I would need an out door space with a roof… which I do not have. 

Also, there is a chance that composts can have a strong odor and I do not want to disturb my roommates nor my neighbors. 

Although it may not be so ideal at the moment, I got to study a little more about making composts at home. There are multiple ways of composting, and through our weekly online meetup today I learned that there is an organization called «The Worm Farmers». The people here can send you worms to your home if you are making a worm farm for composting!

I found this so interesting and an inspiring way to approach people to become sustainable.

I wonder if there is something similar done back in Japan. 

In the future when I go back home, I would like to try composting my food waste in my garden.
