Vermont
As a way to curb methane production, Vermont passed a Universal Recycling Law in 2012 banning food scraps from landfill disposal. Businesses were required to stop putting food in their trash as of last year, and in 2020, the goal is for food scraps to be banned from all landfills in Vermont by both businesses and residents. The alternatives include throwing scraps in a compost bin, dropping them off at composting facilities or even giving them away to local farmers who can use them.
