JULIA ROBERTS - ROBERTS TALKS TRASH ABOUT CLEVER COMPOSTING

ROBERTS TALKS TRASH ABOUT CLEVER COMPOSTING

Oscar winner JULIA ROBERTS started composting in her back garden after feeling guilty about the amount of food she scraped off her children's' plates after meals.
The actress' waste-not-want-not attitude began when her third child was born last year (07) and she started realising just how fussy her kids could be.
The Pretty Woman star has been environmentally conscious for years, but when she became a mother she realised there was a chance to do more.
Appearing on an Earth Day Oprah TV special in America on Tuesday (22Apr08), Roberts explained, "Once you have three kids the amount of food that goes into your garbage can starts to just... I just cry and scrape plates and think, 'How can I be doing this?'"
And the actress admits she's greener than ever thanks to tips she's taken from pal Sophie Uliano, who has just written an advice book for those who want to be more organic and less wasteful, called Gorgeously Green.
Brit Uliano joined best friends Roberts and Oprah Winfrey on the show to promote organic foods. The actress revealed she's feeding her 10-month-old tot Henry organic baby food.
The ladies were in for a surprise when Uliano opened a can of worms, literally - she took the lid off a worm farm composter prompting Roberts and Oprah to jump back as the invertebrates wriggled to the surface.
Uliano tried to calm the panicked pals by yelling, "Don't panic, girls!"
Game Roberts then agreed to tip 200 worms into a garbage can.
