Why Recycling Food Waste Matters
If you’re someone deeply concerned about food security and the state of the world, you understand that every choice you make can have a profound impact. Recycling food waste is more than just a responsible practice; it’s a vital step towards:
- Reducing Landfill Waste: Food scraps make up a significant portion of landfill waste, where they produce harmful methane gas and methyl-mercury, an airborne form of mercury created by mixing food scraps with landfill mercury. By recycling, you’re helping to reduce these environmental hazards.
- Nourishing the Soil: Composting returns valuable nutrients and microbes to the earth, creating rich, fertile soil that supports healthy gardens and ecosystems.
- Building Food Security: By growing your own food with nutrient-rich compost, you’re taking control of your food supply and contributing to local food resilience.

DON'T WASTE YOUR WASTE
Food does not compost in a landfill. It is encased in an environment with no water and no oxygen. Don't get us wrong, landfills are necessary so that we don't have trash and toxins lying all over the place, but the nutrients and organic matter from organic waste are much better utilized in composting.
As it says in this New York Times article:
"After 20 years of sorting through garbage cans and landfills, the archaeologist William L. Rathje has accumulated precious memories. There are the 40-year-old hot dogs, perfectly preserved beneath dozens of strata of waste, and the head of lettuce still in pristine condition after 25 years. But the hands-down winner, the one that still makes him shake his head in disbelief, is an order of guacamole he recently unearthed. Almost as good as new, it sat next to a newspaper apparently thrown out the same day. The date was 1967."
