There's no oxygen in a landfill, so there's no composting of the organic material. Instead it produces methane gas which is a much more potent greehouse gas than C02 is. Aerobic compostin, like the backyard kind or what happens in a bigger compositing facility, just produces CO2 which is still bad but at least we're left with something useful after the fact, which can be used to fertilize soils and reduce dependence on other kinds of non-renewable fertilizers. Environment Canada link on the matter.
