Is that really a public opinion matter though? It's just a math question based on whether the cost of composting makes more sense than the cost of landfilling and complying with applicable environmental regs. They don't have a compost program to make money selling the final product, they do it because it avoids cost challenges related to having organic materials mixed in with garbage. This is a calculation for a CPA, not a question for Joe Public.
