The New Waste to Money Farmer’s Almanac


Farmers are already self-employed.
BUT are you also as self-reliant as you can be?

SMALL Landfills – Capture the Methane And Make Energy, too.

How much Municipal Solid Waste is considered the size of
SMALL Landfills / Garbage Dumps?

It used to be I million – 3 million tons of Municipal Solid Waste-in-place.



https://www.epa.gov/sites/default/files/2017-06/documents/overview_lmop_lfg_us.pdf
slide 5 of the presentation

Now-a-days there appears to be no limit to the size of a “Landfill project to produce energy” as long as the people who own it can find
1. an end user for the gas or electricity
2. Funding for the project.

The Landfills discussed in this post range from 360,000 tons to 2.8 million tons of waste-in-place.

CH4 Investments, Urgent Need to Use the Methane in Landfills

One of the quickest ways to reduce Methane in our skies
is CH4 Investments = Methane capture – part of Landfill Gas (LFG).

CH4 is Methane!
Methane is half of the GHG in Landfill Gas (RNG).
Make Fuel or Electricity from Landfill Gas!
Save the planet, use the Methane. At least 1 Landfill a day, every day!

We take the Value from Waste and the Climate Cleans Up!

ISO knows the Value of WASTE! >>> Break-thru

………Essential for Industry!

The International Organization for Standardization (ISO)
at the heart and soul of industrial processes worldwide.

ISO knows the Value of WASTE and Closing-the-Loop

The idea for the ISO Circular Economy committee began with a seminar held by AFNOR, ISO’s member for France. What followed was a French standard, XP X30-901, Circular economy, published in 2018. The response was so positive that an international committee was proposed and ISO/TC 323 began to get to work.
The standards for ISO/TC 323 are to be published in 2024.

In the mood to phase out fossil fuel? – Governance

Fossil Fuel is Ancient Waste! We need to stop using it and use the Waste we make now! We can make our Waste cleaner!

Yes, Governance! One of the ESGs. – Solutions through Law

“The rules of our world are laws, and they can be changed. Laws can restrict or they can enable. What matters is what they serve. Many of the laws in our world serve property – they are based on ownership. But imagine a law that has a higher moral authority… a law that puts people and planet first. Imagine a law that starts from first “do no harm”, that stops this dangerous game and takes us to a place of safety….” Polly Higgins, 2015

What makes an economy Circular? Decompose to New Life !

Let’s review.

>>In Nature, After Use:Dead tissues break down and are converted into simple organic forms;food for new life.
>>In Industry, After Use: Break-it-up, dismantle it, separate materials, disassemble it, take it apart into its various materialsand ready them as new feed-stocks for new production.

“Earth knows no desolation. …She smells regeneration
in the moist breath of decay.”
– George Meredith

In this post:
Without decay, we would overflow with plant & animal “remains”
Decomposition is the first stage = recycling
Recycling business is beginning to turn profitable
There really is an urgent need to accelerate recycling.
…Remember, a list at the bottom of other posts about Waste.
