There is a lot of recent carbon in garbage, so burning garbage is usually carbon neutral. If the burning can be used to heat buildings or to generate electricity, then it replaces some fossil fuel burnings. This reduces the effect of global warming.Burning garbage means that less garbage goes into landfill which can cause problems like methane generation and pollution seepage.If the garbage is not burnt at high temperatures there may be other pollutants released which can contribute to air pollution.
