Hello chess friends and earth lovers!
I want to share with you a project that I´m working on to process any kind of organic waste. 
It´s called Paca Digestora Silva. 
The basic idea is to wrap organic waste with leaves using a wood frame to propitiate alcoholic fermentation as a transformation process
Cheers!
Good games!

That might work but the best practice for composting is to dry and mulch the leaves. If you leave them in tact, that will slow decay. If you put them like that wet, you might get paper mache 'house' that slows decay.

That cube contains 200kg of leaves+200kg of organic waste.
I don´t care if it slowsly decay, the idea is to process organic waste in a clean healthy way, without gases, odors nor pests,

I thought organic matter more or less takes care of itself (something is going to eat and poop it, whether fungi, small animals or other plants) and it was petrochemical plastics that we need to worry about.

Yes, organic waste can take care of itself but they are more or less 60% of the waste we are sending to landfills. Landfills creates gases, bad odors and pollute, aside the fuel that´s needed to move that waste. The problem with our trash is big by many ways
