Check out our latest blog posts, Deep Impact, by Gelena Constantine of EPA Office of Research and Development. Ms. Constantine recounts her visits to a community facing issues with a composting facility. "I thought that a compost center would be a positive addition to the industrial park it was located in and the local neighborhoods, but it turned out to be much more complex than that." She goes on to say that truly understanding the challenges in communities requires experiencing them "firsthand."
