Why are landfills problematic?
Land fills are an archaic way of managing waste. A caveman leader probably saw a wolf (they did not have lap dogs those days) burying a bone with their hind legs and thought “Hmm good idea, we too shall do.” Probably O.K. for that lifestyle…no plastic bags, i-pods, dvds, fridges and a low human population…a bit more problematic with 5 billion people hooked on buying lots of stuff every day. Landfills around the world are best described as: big-toxic-holes-peppering the-earths-surface.
