I know that landfills and incinerators hurt the environment. Which one is more dangerous and will trees be able to offset the effects?
You KNOW that, do you? Just how do you know that? Seems to me that landfills and incinerators HELP the environment. If it weren't for landfills and incinerators, where would we put all our trash? Just pile it up in the back yard? Dump it in the forest? Dump it in the ocean? Aren't we, in fact, REMOVING trash from the "environment" by putting it in landfills or burning it?

How will using a composter help the environment?
The decision to recycle instead of to put in the garbageis a reason why using a composter helps the environment. A composter allows materials that otherwise would end up in landfills instead to break down aerobically in the presence of adequate levels of air, heat and moisture. So the amount of garbage going into landfills is decreased.One of the reasons why an option other than landfills is important relates to the breakdown process. It isn't that breakdown doesn't take place in landfills. It does. But that breakdown is anaerobic, without the important role of oxygen. The result is the hallmark smell that landfills have from the presence of methane. Methane, which is a greenhouse gas, is absent from the aerobic composting processes that composters carry out. So a composter doesn't add to environmental pollution whereas landfills do.
