"Leaf" It In Your Yard
Composting Virtual Tour

Temperature--WOW!!!
...but look at the difference just one week later. Living things need energy, air, and water to grow and reproduce. All consumers produce heat. So the higher the population of consumers you have, the more heat you have. Higher temperatures mean the organisms are getting the energy, air, and water they need to grow and reproduce. More consumers are good for you because it means efficient composting is taking place--soil is not far away!
