PROS: CAPTURING LANDFILL GAS

Methane gas is a major contributor to climate change. Its impact on global warming is about 21 times greater than that of carbon dioxide. Capturing landfill gas to provide energy reduces the amount of methane that is released into the atmosphere. If landfill gas is used in place of fossil fuels, it can make an even greater contribution to reducing global warming. The technology for using landfill gas as a direct fuel or to produce electricity is very similar to that used for natural gas. That means that it is relatively easy to set up at a competitive price.
