A self-regulating compost bin is formed from a temperature-resistant plastic, and is configured to regulate its internal temperature and inform the user when harmful pathogens within the compost are eradicated. The main body of the compost bin is hollow with a lid having a window through which sunlight may enter to heat the compost. The compost bin may also have a controller in communication with a fan. The controller is configured to control an operation of the fan. The controller is also in communication with a transceiver. The controller alerts a user when the interior of the main body remains at a predetermined temperature for a predetermined length of time to ensure the compost is safe for use.
