What goes around comes around; that’s what recycling is all about. Recycling is a natural part of the growing process, whether its composting waste at home to big municipal recyclers, reusing and reclaiming water to irrigate plants, or finding novel new for organic waste products.
On "Cycle And Recycle," host Nan Sterman show us how San Diego recycles green waster and gray water, to put them back to work growing more.
