When food scraps and yard clippings break down in a landfill, oxygen is not available to convert organic waste into nutrient-rich material. Instead, the rotting waste will release methane, a climate super-pollutant more potent than carbon dioxide.But! When organic material is separated from trash and decomposes naturally, the result is a valuable commodity used to enrich soils. Whether composted in a backyard or at a large commerical site, organic waste can be a resource for county residents.Space is limited, reserve a seat today!
