What problems are caused by garbage disposal?
The most severe problem with garbage is where to put it. There’s a huge–huge–island of garbage in the middle of the Pacific Ocean; New York piles it on barges; garbage dumps get compacted and built on (the Shoreline Amphitheater in Mountain View, California, is on a garbage dump and there are tubes in the ground to release the methane, a major cause of Global Warming). We can only recycle and compost so much garbage. Garbage attracts rats and other disease-carrying vermin.
