Dear Rajan,
does not composting also release Methan (CH4), which is considered as the culpit of climate change gazes?

Methane is definitely a more powerful greenhouse gas compared to CO2.

But in today's situation, CO2 is released in much larger quantities ( thermal power plants, transport, etc. ) - and hence the leading culprit.

Biomethanisation ( which is purely anaerobic ) gives off more quantities of methane.

In composting, we have aerobic composting, anaerobic composting and vermicomposting.

Now regarding the actual quantities of methane released in various composting methods - I do not have the expertise to comment.

Hope somebody in this list will give some valuable information support regarding this.

Best Regards,


Rajan
