Dear Betty: Reader Email 11/2/18

Dear Betty,
What should I do with pizza boxes from delivery?  Are they trash, compost, or recycling?
Thanks!


Thanks so much for your question!  Pizza boxes can tricky.  If they don't have any food or grease on them, they can go in the recycling.  If they are greasy or have sauce or cheese on them, put them in the compost or burn them.  Cardboard is good to balance out your compost pile and keep your brown to green ratio in check.  When your ratio is balanced things compost faster and doesn't smell.  Remember the ratio should be approximately two thirds brown to one-third green.
