Be among the first to hear key insights from a new report by the SWANA Applied Research Foundation! This report equips solid waste managers with the latest information and guidance on carbon dioxide avoided emissions costs associated with options for processing mixed organics —like food waste, yard trimmings, paper, and wood—rather than landfilling them. The analysis is based on Version 16 of the EPA’s WARM model, released in December 2023, which compares the net GHG emissions from landfilling mixed organic waste to processing it in biological or thermal treatment facilities.
