Yet another IQ test...
I don’t believe that. They disintegrate on my counter faster than that maybe a week.
Actually, plastic bags are degradable.
Nonetheless, this is totally ridiculous. Any home gardener knows that if you don’t stir up your mulch bin occasionally to get oxygen down there you don’t get mulch. You get stratified dirt and garbage — that stinks.
Pointing to peels in dumps as indicative of how insidious methane release is to the environment is about as silly as believing any of the other crappola associated with global warming.
Once they’ve slipped the Trojan rubber over it...just tie it off...and, Bob’s your uncle.
The take-away is create your own compost bin and fill it with worms.
Another example that ‘scientists’ have tremendous pressure to publish. So we get a constant barrage of papers that become micro focused on something true but completely irrelevant.
We’re supposed to feel guilty about the slaughter of millions of Bison that used to roam freely. Now we’re supposed to feel guilty about raising livestock.
How many animals are there? How much methane do they produce? How much CO2 is created from natural wildfires and volcanoes? Carbon underground used to be carbon above ground. Please tell me how a 0.04% trace gas (CO2) will be a globe killer if it fluctuates a bit? Please tell me how a little more won’t just translate to happier plants and a greener planet? Water vapor is the #1 greenhouse gas, while 2/3 of the planet is covered by water. I assume nothing can be done about that.
...and yet I’m supposed to be worried about banana peel decomposition in a landfill? While none of the predictions include the varying activity of the Sun into their ‘models’.
When somebody gets the b*lls to tell China to stop opening a new coal fueled power plant every other week...let me know.
smh.
Yeah but what a glorious 2 years it is.
Twinkie to banana: Hold my beer.
I have read that trees give off methane themselves and decomposition in swamps and bogs emit methane. The climate cultists say humans are the reason for methane overload...I don’t think so. Unless we are willing to get rid of all swamps, all bogs and all trees, I think we are doing just fine.
Well huh, I thought most of this type waste was going into compost bins/green cans.
That’s one I do because you can get free to nearly free compost and mulch from the dump.
Let them compost for me so I don’t have to.
total BS, I throw my banana peels on my plants all the time, and they are completely degraded with a week or two.
So we should pee on lefties?
“Methane is a substance that adds to the ozone layer, capturing sunlight and heat in the earth.”
Stupid on steroids.
The author of that article slept thru class the day they taught thermodynamics.
My dentist swears I get more radiation from eating a banana than from her innumerable x-rays of my teeth.
Where does the methane go if the banana peal decomposes in an eco friendly backyard composter?
Almost nothing degrades in a landfill. Not enough oxygen for it. If you want the stuff to degrade, you need to turn it like a compost pile.
So we should pee on lefties? >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
You will have to get in line.
I have seen recent photos of a McDonalds hamburger and french fries in original condition that was made in the 1970’s.
