This is not true. Composting REDUCES the amount of garbage, and can, if done properly, reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
Composting food is important because it reduces waste sent to landfills, helps to enrich soil with nutrients, and reduces greenhouse gas emissions.
Yes, composting is good for the environment because it reduces the amount of organic waste sent to landfills, decreases greenhouse gas emissions, enriches soil health, and conserves water and energy resources.
Composting is good for the environment because it reduces waste sent to landfills and decreases greenhouse gas emissions. It benefits the soil by adding nutrients, improving soil structure, and promoting healthy microbial activity, which helps plants grow better.
Waste segregation helps to reduce the volume of waste sent to landfills, promotes recycling and composting, minimizes environmental pollution, conserves resources, and reduces greenhouse gas emissions.
This process is known as composting. It involves creating an environment where organic materials like food scraps and yard waste can decompose with the help of microorganisms, turning them into nutrient-rich compost that can be used to improve soil health and support plant growth. Composting helps divert organic waste from landfills, reducing greenhouse gas emissions and promoting a more sustainable approach to managing waste.
No, composting yard waste means you keep it as compost. There is no increase in the amount of garbage sent to landfills. Correct composting releases no greenhouse gases.

Composting will not eliminate landfills, but it can help reduce them in size. Composting takes organic waste (like kitchen scraps and garden trimmings) out of landfills. If organic waste goes to landfill it often generates methane which, if not captured, is a dangerous greenhouse gas 21 times stronger than carbon dioxide. Many local authorities are beginning organic waste collection schemes as part of their contribution to reducing global warming.
Composting helps the earth by diverting organic waste from landfills, reducing methane emissions, enriching soil with valuable nutrients, promoting healthy plant growth, and providing a sustainable alternative to chemical fertilizers.
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.

Organic waste, like food scraps and yard waste, typically takes up the most space in landfills. This type of waste can easily decompose and create methane gas, a potent greenhouse gas. Recycling and composting can help reduce the amount of organic waste in landfills.
Landfills are a significant source of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions, as decomposing organic waste releases methane and CO2 into the atmosphere. It is estimated that landfills contribute around 18% of total methane emissions globally, which is a potent greenhouse gas with a higher impact on climate change than CO2. The exact amount of CO2 produced by landfills can vary depending on factors such as waste composition, management practices, and environmental conditions.
