It just seems a waste (bad pun, sorry) to burn gas in trucks collecting waste and then having it create a type of gas that is left unused.

If there isn't a big uptake on centralized green waste collection, perhaps a push for home composting (maybe raccoon-proof compost bin giveaways?) might have better uptake.

I'm not sure about the CBA part, but the Waterloo Landfill already has a gas-to-energy facility which opened in 1999.
