Wiser Than Me with Julia Louis-Dreyfus
Julia Gets Wise with Sylvia Earle

I know so many people who gave up on their compost pail because they opened that thing one day and they found mold or even those little wriggling, you know, those horrible, I don't know what they are, but they're disgusting. And there's always going to be a smell.

And then once a day you're running to the curb with a little leaking compost bag made of cornstarch before it goes nuclear on your carpet or whatever. No matter how easy preventing food waste was, dropping food in the trash was easier. Human beings are going to go for the easy thing when we're tired, and many of us are just exhausted. Mill says preventing food waste is one easy thing you can do.

With Mill, keeping food out of the trash is as easy as dropping food in the trash. It looks like a tall kitchen trash can, kind of. It also looks kind of like an iPhone or like a futuristic obelisk or a Scandinavian minimalist sculpture. But you can treat it just like a trash can. You can drop in your food scraps, almost anything from a turkey carcass to like 20 avocado pits.

Mill works automatically overnight. You don't even have to press a button. You can keep filling it for weeks and weeks, and it never, ever smells, really. So in that way, it's even easier than using the trash. It turns all of that stuff into what Mill calls food grounds, which are dry, compact, and even kind of pleasant. You can drop them in your curbside compost if you have it.

You can mix them into your compost pile or your garden soil if you have either of those. And even if you have none of the above, Mill can actually pick up your grounds and get them to a small farm for you. That's what we do with ours. So, any reason you have for still putting food in the trash, Mill has an answer for it. It's the ultimate excuse killer.

It makes doing the right thing and doing the easy thing the same thing. I mean, it's this little every night, overnight miracle. In the morning, I can't help peeking in there just to see how I changed all that food waste into a resource. Because I'm the one who decided to keep food out of the garbage, Mill just made it all easier, cleaner, and a little more magical.

So usually, Sylvia, we end our conversations with a couple of sort of quickie questions. Is there something that you would go back and tell yourself at 21 with the knowledge that you have now?
