Yes, bio-degrading garbage produces methane, a dangerous greenhouse gas. Many landfills around the world are trying to capture this methane and use it to generate electricity. Not many are doing it successfully.

Pig farms are trying to do the same with their large amounts of animal waste.

Green House gases work by allowing the Sun's rays into the atmosphere, but don't let them back out. Green-house gases are gases like CO2, Methane and other traces of elements.
