Why Compost Matters

Composting combats climate change on three critical fronts. First, by removing food waste from landfills, we reduce our trash volume by about 40% which extends landfill life and reduces heavy machinery required to handle material. Secondly, food waste in landfills is also a high producer of noxious, planet-warming methane gas. In fact, if “Foodwasteinlandfills” was a country of its own, it would be the THIRD LARGEST carbon producer, behind only the US and China! Finally, when the finished compost is spread and seeds are planted, the ability for that area to sequester carbon from the atmosphere (where there’s too much) down into the soil (where we need it) is activated, thus offering the potential to reverse climate change.

Benefits of composting​

​Food waste in landfills is a major contributor to the climate crisis, and there are simple steps we can take to not only decrease our detrimental impact but simultaneously create positive change by building healthy soils which serve to sequester carbon from the atmosphere back into the soil where it belongs.

  • Reduces methane emissions from landfills.
  • Conserves water by retaining more moisture in the soil which also helps suppress plant diseases and pests.
  • Improves soil health which helps trap harmful carbon from reaching the atmosphere. 
  • Decreases the need for artificial fertilizers.
  • Encourages the production of beneficial bacteria and fungi that break down organic matter to create humus.
