Biodegradable Waste
Biodegradable waste refers to organic material that can break down naturally through the action of living organisms, particularly bacteria and fungi. This type of waste includes food scraps, yard waste, and paper products. When biodegraded, these materials decompose into simpler substances, returning nutrients to the soil and reducing pollution. Proper management of biodegradable waste is crucial for effective waste disposal and environmental sustainability. Instead of ending up in landfills, composting is a common practice that transforms this waste into valuable organic fertilizer, promoting healthy soil and reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
