Compost time

This Project Drawdown article about composting notes, "For every million metric tons of organic wastes that decompose, 469 metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent greenhouse gases in the form of methane are released."

Composting organic material like food waste and lawn materials results in soil carbon rather than landfill methane emissions.
