Pretty sure the key to overthrowing capitalism is in the trashcan.
Compost kitchen scraps: Put 'em in a jar or bucket. Mix with dry yard scraps in regular compost or bury outdoors for the worms to finish over several months.
Might be able to fake it on a balcony with enough odor care, but a neighbor with some square footage willing to trade-back finished soil or fertilizer might be easier.
Compost ALL kitchen scraps -- worms (red wigglers and 3-5 5gal buckets, or a double-long low crate)
Compost fecal matter -- Lots of fine brown mulch (sawdust good), and a hot pile with lots of time. (far enough from the kitchen)
!!! save fecal manure for non-food crops that go into compost -- this basically filters/processes the shize through a plant, and drops the risk of preventable kaka diseases.
Avoiding processed foods drops packaging significantly. Reuse remaining packaging for crafts or gardening, especially if plastics are part of your transitional ethic.
Find the home-forge friend who wants to melt down household aluminum and steel scrap. They are not as far away as you think and may be too insecure about their hobbies to brag on main.
I'm still working on compost upgrades, worms, and re-smelting, but setting these systems up thoughtfully helps them take care of themselves after setup.
Anyway. Stop sending wheat to earth. #themoonisaharshmistress

Many guides have been written. I'm just keeping it in circulation.
