Composting companies turn food waste from homes and businesses into nutrient-rich soil.

Moonshot Compost provides caddies and compostable bags where commercial and residential customers can toss their food waste. Moonshot co-founder Chris Wood says 22% of landfills are made up of food waste, creating a constant need to build more landfills and creating pollution.

"When it's returned to the soil, it provides nutrients and other types of microorganisms that make the soil better tolerant of heat. It's able to hold water in place better," said Wood.
