When food scraps and other organic materials break down they emit methane, a greenhouse gas more potent and damaging in the short-term than carbon emissions from fossil fuels.
I wonder if this Idiot Presstitute realizes that it makes no difference where the Organic Waste breaks down, either in the landfill or a composting pile, it is STILL BREAKING DOWN.
Now can we talk about repealing 19?

California dumps have piping under the waste to trap the methane they have methane generators that trap the gas and it’s used to fuel their trucks.

Will they also be taking pet waste? It also breaks down in a similar way, chemically, to food waste and emits methane in the process.

Absolutely every single gram of carbon in food waste came from the atmosphere. Trees grow up out of the ground and it appears that they get all of their mass from under the ground but it they actually only get water and some other elements like nitrogen sulfur phosphorus calcium and silicon. But the carbon that makes up most of the tree comes only from air. When plants decay it just goes back to the air. Of course it is in the form of methane lots of the time and methane actually floats up out of the atmosphere and gets taken away by the solar wind. The net effect is less carbon on earth. That is why carbon which is the fourth most abundant element in the universe is only the 14th most abundant element in the earth’s crust.

Generations ago..When I was in the public school business..we did a similar thing. We converted uneaten food into...
BACON...SAUSAGE...HAM...PORK CHOPS ....We were happy..the farmer was happy..Pigs were happy for a while??
The problem was...It Worked..Feds could not stand that. Therefore it became a banned practice.

And the cost of the program imposed on municipalities to collect the waste and turn it into energy will make for very expensive “biogas” energy. If the municipalities don’t find a away to use that energy themselves, they’ll next get the stupid California legislature to demand the utility companies buy the expensive “biogas” energy from the municipalities.
Then again, as the earth climate cools over the next decades, they will need all the energy they can get.

Most people in California will be required to toss excess food into green waste bins rather than the trash.Invent plumbing for kitchen garbage disposals so 'the waste' is send to a different type of treatment center and really can be composted.

“To avoid those emissions, California plans to start converting residents’ food waste into compost”
right. because that’s DIFFERENT than said wastes “rotting” ... and of course, no methane is produced by “composting”, whereas “rotting” does ...
