What are the environmental benefits of the GEMTM?
By diverting tons of trash from landfills, the GEMTM reduces greenhouse gas emissions that are emitted from trash as it decays. In fact, this type of waste makes up 95 percent of the trash collected by garbage trucks, which would result in less trash, less trucks, less fuel used, and less greenhouse gas emissions overall – a huge benefit for the environment. In addition, the GEMTM produces a negative carbon effect by “converting and diverting” trash into clean energy, benefitting the environment in two separate phases.
