The other #greenhousegas. How #methane from #foodwaste contributes to #globalwarming and why small efforts to stop it can make a big difference. Over time, food is buried under other #waste and #decomposes in #anaerobic conditions (without access to oxygen), creating a favorable environment for #bacteria that produce #methane, a greenhouse gas 28 times stronger than #carbondioxide over a 100-year period. https://www.reuters.com/graphics/FOOD-WASTE/METHANE/gdpzwqwqovw/
