One of the biggest detractors to Fargo, in my opinion, is the methane stench from the landfill. I read that most of the methane odor from landfills is caused by decomposing food. Much of this could be addressed by using kitchen composting units. These are easy to use, do not smell if used properly, and can be used year round. Backyard composting is great, but it's tough to use during the winter. There are some great videos on YouTube showing how to do kitchen composting successfully. The composted material is a great addition to the garden or for potted plants.
