The stupidness continues....

F***ing ridiculous.

Don't our own government know that modern landfills have Methane
extraction systems taking the gas that then becomes fuel for adapted turbine engines that
turn huge generators making power to be put back on Grid?

Used to work on a golf course built on closed landfill with Waste Management
in charge of Methane extraction systems producing power.

No that is good use of unbuildable property, and surrounding developments.
And also having positive environmental impact.
