Benefits
[Editing, based on [|International Composting Awareness Week]] Organically-active material buried ‘anaerobically’ (without air) in landfill causes greenhouse gas emissions annually by producing //methane//: //a gas with// //25 times the global warming potential of carbon dioxide//! If properly composted instead, this same organic waste could help to abate climate change in yet another way: by sinking or ‘sequestering’ carbon back into the soil. Using compost on land reduces the need for water by an average of 30%! - [|International Composting Awareness Week]
