6. Makes the Most of Your Waste

Kitchen and yard waste is the largest segment of a typical household’s waste stream. For most families, it comprises approximately one-third of their total garbage. And that's, total garbage. (Sorry, we're almost at the end.) The way you manage this waste at home is WAY better for the earth than what the landfill would do. The fact of the matter is, huge garbage dump piles don’t receive enough airflow to go through the aerobic composting process. Instead, those piles go through anaerobic decomposition, which creates methane — a gas much stronger than carbon dioxide that contributes significantly to climate change. The opposite of what conscientious composting does.
