National Landfill Diversion is a nationally operating company preventing waste from being sent to landfills by redirecting it to recycling, composting, or reuse facilities. This process reduces the amount of waste that ends up in landfills, which has significant environmental benefits, including reduced greenhouse gas emissions and lower risk of soil and water contamination.
About Our Goals
Recycling: This involves collecting and reprocessing materials like paper, plastic, glass, and metal into new products.
Composting: This process breaks down organic waste, such as food scraps and yard waste, into nutrient-rich soil amendments.
Reuse: This involves extending the life of products by finding new uses for them, such as donating gently used items to charity or repurposing items for crafts.
Benefits of Landfill Diversion: Reduced greenhouse gas emissions: Landfills produce methane, a potent greenhouse gas. Diversion reduces the amount of waste in landfills, thus decreasing methane emissions.
Less soil and water contamination: Landfills can leak pollutants into the surrounding soil and water. Diversion reduces the risk of these contaminations.
Reduced need for landfill space: Landfills are finite, and diversion helps to extend the lifespan of existing landfills and reduce the need for new ones.
Economic benefits: Some diversion programs can lead to cost savings for businesses and communities by reducing waste disposal fees and increasing the value of recycled materials.
