Re: composting garden waste vs landfill disposal

**Ron Whitehurst b*@rinconvitova.com**

The process is important. The process of decoposition grows decomposer
micropes and arthropods (bugs) that feed predators. This contributes to
diversity and ecological stability.

Composting at home helps society by improving the environment. Also
transporting wastes wastes fossil fuel energy
