GreenScience Technologies Inc. ("GreenScience") was formed to pursue a very large market opportunity in the organic waste management and organic soil amendment spaces through the use of a proprietary technology. GreenScience addresses the growing difficulty of disposing of organic waste in an economically viable and environmentally sustainable manner, in keeping with wide-ranging legislative changes banning organic waste from landfills. The GreenScience Digester converts any volume of organic waste into a high value, high quality soil amendment that increases soil fertility and significantly improves crop yields thereby enhancing food security. The market for organic waste diversion is large and growing, and the need for soil improvement worldwide is enormous.At the heart of the GreenScience solution is Biomimicry. Biomimicry is an approach to innovation that seeks sustainable solutions to human challenges by emulating nature's time-tested patterns and strategies. The concept of using large quantities of worms to digest organic waste is not new. Indeed, there are several sources of worm castings, primarily associated with farming operations. However, GreenScience has taken the process to the next level. The GS Digester is an organic resource recycling machine that operates with very low power requirements and produces no offensive odours. It uses microorganisms and worms to naturally recycle any kind of organic waste (including food scraps, paper, yard waste, bio-solids etc.) into worm castings, a highly valued, natural soil amendment. A unique and proprietary web-enabled telemetry system has been created where up to nine key scientific criteria within the GS Digester can be monitored in real-time wirelessly, thereby allowing GreenScience to assist any operator, no matter where the machine is located, to operate the machine to optimum efficiency. The wireless data collection system has multiple benefits, all enhancing the throughput
