00:00What happens when you burn garden debris?

00:03Release of toxic pollutants.

00:06Burning plant material emits PAHs, VOCs, and fine particulates,

00:11worsening respiratory health and creating lingering hazardous smoke.

00:16Loss of soil fertility.

00:18Flames convert nutrient-rich debris into fugitive ash,

00:22stripping nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium.

00:25Composting builds humus, moisture retention, and microbes.

00:28Fire hazards and property damage.

00:32Small yard fires can escape on windy days.

00:35Hot embers ignite dry grass or mulch,

00:38especially where species like English ivy thrives.

00:42Smothering beneficial wildlife.

00:45Debris piles shelter springtails, beetles, and amphibians.

00:49Burning erases habitats, undermines natural pest control,

00:53and slows healthy decomposition.

00:55Erosion and soil compaction.

00:57Removing protective leaf layers for burning exposes bare soil to raindrop impact,

01:03encouraging compaction, runoff, and costly slope erosion.

01:08Legal restrictions and fines.

01:11Many municipalities restrict open burning.

01:14Permits may be required, with fines possible.

01:17Choose curbside pickup or community composting instead.

01:20Climate impact and carbon emissions.

01:24Burning rapidly returns stored carbon to the atmosphere as CO2.

01:29Composting stores carbon in soil.

01:31Supporting microbes, earthworms, and resilience.
