Organic waste placed in landfill will produce methane gas as it decomposes. Methane is a greenhouse gas with more than 20 times the global warming capacity of carbon dioxide. Organic waste decomposition is also a source of organic leachates which can cause contamination of surface and ground water.
Recycle your organic waste so that you are able to capture the valuable resources your organic waste has to offer.
Some of the more effective ways you are able to recycle your organic waste include: -
- Composting
- Worm farming
- Bokashi bucket
- Digging directly into the garden.
