Beyond yard trimmings composting in Mexico City

Article Abstract:

The green waste composting plant in Mexico City, Mexico, has been operating successfully since 1996. So far, more than 40,000 cubic yards have been redirected and processed, thus reducing the volume of material being dumped in landfills. Composting is also playing a role in processing other types of biodegradable residuals, such as Christmas trees. It has been possible to compost a small proportion of the waste produced by the food processing industry, and compost from yard trimmings is being used in public areas, significantly boosting soil texture and plant health.
