Landfill operators are the good guys!

HydroTerra is doing an increasing amount of monitoring work with landfills these days. They are an interesting and essential part of our waste management infrastructure. What was once a hole in the ground is these days a highly engineered structure with emissions collection systems and improved regulations driving improved practices to reduce pollution generation.
Landfill operators sometimes feel like the bad boys in the room, with the sector often the target for criticism from community, environment, policymakers and even the regulators themselves. This criticism stems from the assumption that there is a better way, and perhaps that somehow the landfills are the cause of the waste that we put in them! We ran a webinar on plastics in the ocean a few months ago. There was a statistic on the area of plastic suspended in the vortex in the ocean now being larger than Australia! Most of this plastic should have been destined for landfill. In the absence of cost-effective sustainable options for waste disposal, we must embrace and celebrate the work of our landfill operators.
