Reducing Greenhouse Gas Emissions: By composting your food waste, you're preventing it from ending up in a landfill and producing methane. Instead, it decomposes aerobically (with oxygen), which doesn't produce methane. Conserving Resources: Composting transforms waste into a valuable resource – nutrient-rich compost. This reduces the need for synthetic fertilizers, many of which are produced using non-renewable resources and can contribute to water pollution when overused.
