Domingo Morales has many jobs. Environmentalist is one. A farmer in the city is another. He has started a group. It’s called Compost(堆肥) Power.
“I’m a compost expert,” Morales says, “I’ve been composting for the past seven years.” Morales runs six composting sites in New York City. That’s his hometown. “In New York City, one - third of our waste is actually food waste,” he says. That garbage is put into landfills(垃圾填埋场). But it could be composted.
“Composting is taking our food waste and turning it into food for the soil,” Morales explains. Plants use nutrients to grow. They take these nutrients from the soil. Banana peels and apple cores(核) can be composted. So can many other unnecessary foods. But never add meat, dairy, cheese, fats or oils, pet waste, or chemically treated wood. These items either cause unpleasant smells or could contain harmful diseases or chemicals.
The food cycle has to do with how food is produced, sold, and eaten. When food ends up in landfills, energy and nutrients are wasted. But with composting, the food cycle can be more sustainable(可持续的). Composting breaks down uneaten food. The nutrients in the compost help the soil. The soil is used to grow new fruits and vegetables. For Morales, composting is “a way to complete the cycle”.
When people think of New York City, they might think of tall buildings and busy streets. But there are also rooftop farms and community gardens. And there are Morales’ composting sites. His task is to start even more of them. “We’re able to create a nice ecosystem right here,” he says. “Even on top of concrete, we can create soil.”
(C)29. Why did Domingo Morales start “Compost Power” in New York City?
A. Because New York City is his hometown.
B. Because it is easier to find composting sites in New York City.
C. Because New York City produces a large amount of food waste.
D. Because climate in New York City is ideal for composting.
