Max Dowling - Toastmasters of the Bluegrass at the Wandering Storytellers - Story Slam - 8/29/11

I just attended my first Second Life Online Toastmasters meeting. It was very nice and covered all of the aspects that you would expect a Toastmasters meeting to cover. One exception, it was virtual.

All of the roles covered, tabletopics, joke of the day and two very good speakers. I filled the Evaluator role. The toastmaster hosted a Skype conference call, so we could all talk and the speakers could recieve their applause when they completed their speeches.

Introduction

I’d like for you all to close your eyes and imagine living next to a landfill. 4.6 pounds of new garbage brought in every day for each person that the landfill serves. The smell off rotting fruits and vegetables, and lawn debris. The sound of heavy earth moving equipment and constant traffic in and out of the place. With landfills filling up at an alarming rate and the difficulty in creating new ones, changes must be made.

I’m going to cover how we can reduce our waste by up to 30% by composting. I’ll cover the top 2 reasons for composting and using a composting tumbler.

After hearing my presentation this evening, you will be armed with the knowledge and resources to start you own compost heap.
