Earthworms are terrestrial invertebrates with more than 9, species grouped into three categories according to their behavior in the natural environment: anecic, endogeic, and epigeic. Anecic species, represented by the common nightcrawler (Lumbricus terrestris), construct permanent vertical burrows as deep as 4 to 6 feet in the soil. Book Description. Microbes are the most abundant organisms in the biosphere and regulate many critical elemental and biogeochemical phenomena. Because microbes are the key players in the carbon cycle and in related biological reactions, microbial ecology is a vital research area for understanding the contribution of the biosphere in global warming and the response of the natural environment .

About this book The main aim of this book is to bridge the gap between aerobic and anaerobic waste treatments by concentrating on studies of earthworms. In particular, vermicomposting is being discussed as well as its properties and applications. The use of earthworms in organic waste management: the life cycles and productivity of Eisenia fetida (Sav.), Eudrilus eugeniae (Kinberg), Perionyx excavatus (Michaelsen) and Dendrobaena veneta (Rosa), and their potential in processing animal and plant wastes, from sewage, agricultural, domestic, urban and industrial sources are summarized.
Introduction The main aim of this book is to bridge the gap between aerobic and anaerobic waste treatments by concentrating on studies of earthworms. In particular, vermicomposting is being discussed as well as its properties and applications. Vermicomposting is the process of producing compost by utilizing earthworms to turn the organic waste into high-quality compost that consists mainly of worm cast in addition to decayed organic matter (Ismail ; Devi and Prakash ).

The book has been updated throughout and extensive additions made. These include a greatly expanded treatment of earthworm community ecology, interactions between earthworms and microorganisms, and /5(3). Earthworm Management.
There is interest in managing earthworms to utilize their beneficial effects in organic waste reduction, in land reclamation, and in reduced-intensity agriculture (Edwards and Bohlen, ; Lee, ).
Because of their effects on organic matter decay, earthworms are increasingly being used to accelerate decomposition of organic waste materials.

Waste management is a significant environmental justice issue. Many of the environmental burdens cited above are more often borne by marginalized groups, such as racial minorities, women, and residents of developing nations.
NIMBY (not in my back yard) is the opposition of residents to a proposal for a new development because it is close to them. This paper will discuss the problem of environmental pollution and waste management. Everything that surrounds us is directly or indirectly connected to the environment.
Earthworms: Earthworms Help The Environment Earthworms are more than just fish bait. They are the main contributors to enriching and improving soil for plants, animals and even humans. Earthworms create tunnels in the soil by burrowing, which aerates the soil to allow air, water and nutrients to reach deep within the soil.An average family of four generates about seven pounds of compostable garbage per week.
To create an environment for the worms to “eat” this much garbage, the worm bin should be equal to one square foot of surface for each pound of garbage per week.
