Living without guilt at all times is impossible for most of us. Though, like all things that we label as “negative”, guilt too can be used for a positive change. As such, the key to life without guilt is first to acknowledge the guilt and then find a solution that will remove that guilt. If there’s no solution or you can’t see it yet, you must forgive yourself and move on. However, when there are potential solutions to remove the guilt, you must take proper action. Moreover, we tend to feel guilt in many areas of our lives, though our focus today will be related to guilt revolving around our planet’s wellbeing.
Due to a lot of denial and disinformation, it took us (humanity) a very long time to realize that we are significantly harming mother nature with our post-industrial-revolution lifestyle. While there may still be some deniers, most of the world’s population now knows we need to change our ways. However, many of us don’t know what exact changes we should make and how to implement them.
As such, this makes us feel guilty and puts us further away from life without guilt. Luckily, sustainable living offers a lot of actionable lifestyle changes that can help remove this guilt. Moreover, many of you already know the majority of these guidelines and hopefully, you already live by them. However, just in case, let’s review them.

However, we also know that the above guidelines may be too broad for some of you. As such, we want to narrow things down and focus on the area of our expertise - responsibly managing organic waste.
Moreover, before going any further, you ought to know that organic waste represents over one-third of all municipal waste and that about 57% of it ends up in landfills. As such, it is a major issue. Luckily, it is also an issue that already has a tangible solution (more on that below).
Furthermore, when it comes to organic waste, most of us deal with two problems that both cause a lot of guilt:
The above-two guilt triggers have been our driving force, which resulted in Bokashi Organko products. These special airtight bins enable every household to COLLECT organic waste properly. Then, using the so-called bokashi fermentation PROCESS, the organic material gets converted into the bokashi cake and bokashi liquid. Finally, you can also USE these valuable resources to ensure that they are kept in the loop.
Bokashi Organko Essential is the latest addition to the Bokashi Organko family. This indoor composter is designed to serve every urban and rural household. Its 15.3-liter volume is large enough to collect organic food for even larger families. Of course, the Essential bin ticks all the boxes. Here are its most important characteristics:
