It's bad because it can pollute the air and that's not god for the earth. It also puts nitrogen in the ground which is also bad for the earth.
because otherwise HUGE landfills of earth would be covered in rubbish piles .
It cuts down on the amount of garbage that otherwise would have gone to landfills, and it reduces the amount of fresh material that has to be extracted from the Earth.
Recyclable items(that have been recycled) help the Earth by not increasing the amount of waste in landfills thus not creating precious land to be polluted and wasted on garbage. Also toxins like PCB aren't added to the air when trash in landfills are burned
There are a lot of ways. First way to pollute the earth is by littering. Throwing garbage on the floor. Also not recycling. If we did not recycle then there would be more landfills in garbage plants. STINKY. Also by throwing things or chemicals in the sea water,lakes,rivers, and ect. The fish will die. There are more ways.
It gives off pollution and harms the environment in may ways, for example the ozone layers depleting will cause higher earth average temperature.
Yes, massive areas of Earth are covered by sedimentary rocks. A good geology map will tell you what rocks are in your area.

By recycling and reducing the footprint of the landfills, we are taking better care of the environment and the earth we live on.
It affects the earth because the garbage is toxic and the fumes are released into the air.
Its in layers because of the density of the compounds in the earth
The thickest of Earth's layers is the mantle.
