Discuss: Treecycle

This is a great business, well done. I was reading in another blog about waste produced in the u.s. that referenced this article:
http://www.communitycompost.org/info/usafood.pdf
And I was wondering if you could find a fit with a company that would salvage some of this waste organic matter to produce compost that you could sell / donate or find a partnership with some small farmers who would be interested in the finished compost.
Sawdust has a 250-300:1 carbon to nitrogen ratio and therefore is a choice material for composting.

I’ve long thought about the effects of loosing traditional woodcutters and their contributions to the health of trees and fire prevention.  Is there a possibility that treecycling could be expanded to serve this kind if function in drought-prone and infrastructure-starved places like California.

If treecyclers could find a way to gain responsible access, dead, damaged, and unhealthy trees, both on our “undeveloped” land and in planted areas that can no longer be cared for properly, could be removed without the damages caused by conventionally commercial lumber companies.  The activities of treecyclers could then also help reduce the extreme devastation of summer and fall fire seasons.

Environmentally aware and responsible treecyclers—possibly combining trained volunteers with commercial or semi-commercial ventures are the only ones I would trust to take care of our land and trees responsibly.

Thanks.. I appreciate the comments.

It is typical Americans who use innovation in relatively small ways that will change society.  It’s like Thoreau believed: change from individuals will change society. 

My everyday neglect of cars, conservation of electricity, and ecologically sustainable attitude is all I can contribute to this until I graduate in 3 years.

Good work!
