nature mill automatic composter

in my ongoing attempts to address the disparity between my vision for the environment and my actions, i've been scouting out items that can help bridge the gap between where i and my family are and where we'd like to be.

i thought for a brief moment that i saw a new blog topic emerging - "green and lazy", because when i saw the nature mill composter i ignored the four hundred dollar price tag and only saw that it'd take care of a sloppy problem automatically. there you go. i've acknowledged the presence of balance between my conscience and my inner laziness. but this is a great product that might bring more people into the composting mode.

nature mill manufactures a variety of products geared towards the efficient management of waste products - human and animal and returning those products to the environment in a useable form. they make a couple of automatic composters and that interests me.

here's what I know about the basic model . . . it will handle up to 120 pounds per month of compost - which would pretty much cover this family. it comes with a carbon filter and has continuous air flow so that it doesn't stink up your home. you can keep it indoors or outdoors. compost is ready every two weeks and it'll tell you when it's time! it seems pretty simple and foolproof and frankly the simple fact that i'm not out there with a shovel or a pitchfork flipping steaming piles of rotting fruits and veggies makes it very very interesting to me.
