What are the similarities and differences between composting and recycling?

Composting takes food and garden waste, leaves, twigs, vegetable peels and vacuum cleaner dust and uses a process of Aliveness, Diversity, Air and Moisture (ADAM) to break it all down into useful humus.
Recycling diverts re-usable material like paper, glass, plastic, aluminum and steel to factories where they are more easily returned to their original condition to produce more of the same.
Similarities
* they both divert materials from landfill where they will lie useless and dangerous for years * they both contribute to reducing the production of carbon dioxide and methane, both dangerous greenhouse gases.
Differences
* Composting is something that anyone with a garden can do. It is a little local contribution to make a greener world. * Recycling is a huge industry that requires cooperation from citizens, government and business on a large scale
