Solution

The correct option is A Landfills
Landfill is a site for the disposal of waste materials by burial. Composting simply requires making a heap of wetted organic matter known as green waste (leaves, food waste) and waiting for the materials to break down into humus after a period of weeks or months. Incineration is the method of burning of waste materials at a very high temperature.
