Benefits of Composting
Composting has a variety of advantages that not everyone is aware of. Here are a few instances:
Methane, an extremely potent greenhouse gas, is produced by organic waste in landfills. Composting waste food and other organic materials considerably lowers methane emissions.
The need of chemical fertilizers is decreased and, in some circumstances, eliminated by compost.
Compost encourages increased crop yields in agricultural fields.
By enhancing contaminated, compacted, and marginal soils, compost can help with reforestation, wetlands restoration, and habitat revitalization initiatives.
Compost is a cost-effective remediation method for soils damaged by hazardous waste.
Where appropriate, compost can offer cost savings over traditional soil, water, and air pollution remediation procedures.
Compost improves soils' ability to retain water.
Carbon dioxide is captured by compost.
