The correct option is C Pollutes surrounding air
A landfill is an engineered pit in which layers of solid waste are filled, compacted, and covered for final disposal. Instead of decomposing waste, the landfills pollute the surrounding land, water bodies, and air, which is dangerous to the environment and the people.
