How To Get Rid Of Trash The Green Way: Garbage Can or Disposal?
• Reduce food waste by creating less, shopping wisely and storing food properly.
• Placing food in the garbage can leads to methane gas emissions which may be captured and reused in some states.
• Garbage disposals send food scraps through miles of pipes and eventually to a landfill, using more water than a trash can.
• Composting is another option to reduce food waste and provides an opportunity to reuse composted material.
• Consider local laws when deciding whether to use a garbage disposal or trash can for disposing of food waste.
