Useless ending: Instead of ending up in landfills and causing methane emission and toxic leachate that pollutes water reserves, tonnes of food waste can be turned into fertiliser.

To reduce the amount of waste in landfills, Putrajaya Corporation (PPj) introduced a pilot project in 2009 to turn food waste into plant fertiliser.
