Isn't burying in a landfill better than burning considering the carbon sequestration considerations of burning what will likely be plastic products? At least with burying we are a little bit closer to putting the oil energy back under the surface of the earth vs having it around in the atmosphere.
- mkbosmans 2mo agoIf you capture the heat from the burning, e.g. to generate electricity, then that can save burning oil/gas/coal instead. Furthermore, the landfill will usually also generate gasses like methane, which need to be burned off too.
