With the effects of increasing carbon emissions and overflowing landfills becoming more and more apparent around the world, Project Worm hopes to spread sustainably mindful behavior throughout Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University. The overarching goal of Project Worm is to educate and inform the Embry-Riddle Daytona Beach campus’ student body on the importance of composting and its ability to positively aid in combating our current global climate crisis. Project Worm’s immediate aim is to provide ERAU students with the option to compost their own organic material from the comfort of their home. As a result of this project, it is expected for the participants to have fully functioning composting bins and an informed attitude towards the harmful effects of carbon emissions, overwhelming landfill sizes, and unhealthy soil, and how composting can dramatically reduce these effects.
