With how many humans there are on Earth and how much garbage we generate how do we still have space in our landfills

The world's population is currently estimated to be around 8 billion people. That's a lot of people, and each one of us generates a lot of garbage. In fact, the average American produces about 4.4 pounds of trash per day. That adds up to a lot of garbage! So, it's no wonder that we're running out of space in our landfills.

But how is it possible that we still have space in our landfills? The answer is that we're getting better at managing our garbage. We're recycling more, composting more, and sending less trash to landfills.

In 1980, only about 10% of our garbage was recycled. Today, that number is closer to 35%. And it's still growing. Composting is also becoming more popular. In 2010, only about 2% of our garbage was composted. Today, that number is closer to 7%.

Landfills are also getting better at managing our garbage. They're using new technologies to reduce the amount of space that garbage takes up. For example, some landfills are using a process called "aerobic digestion" to break down garbage more quickly. This process helps to reduce the amount of space that garbage takes up by about 50%.

We are also finding new ways to use garbage. For example, some companies are turning garbage into energy. And other companies are turning garbage into building materials.

Finally, we're starting to think more about the way we produce garbage. We're designing products that are less wasteful. And we're buying products that are made from recycled materials.

All of these efforts are helping to reduce the amount of garbage that we produce. And they're helping to keep our landfills from overflowing.
