Most garbage is not radioactive. Garbage is decomposed biologically by bacteria, fungi, earthworms, maggots, etc. However some garbage (e.g. plastics, glass) do not decompose and simply take up space in the dump or landfill, unless recycled in some way.

What is lost during radioactive decay?
Decay energy is the energy that has been freed during radioactive decay. When radioactive decay is ongoing it drops off some energy by means of discharging radiation.
