Question

1. the approach that best reduces the volume and weight of municipal solid waste is a) in open pits b) composting c) sanitary landfills d) incineration

Explanation:

Incineration burns waste, reducing its volume and weight significantly. Open - pits just store waste without much reduction. Composting mainly deals with organic waste and may not reduce overall volume and weight as effectively as incineration for all types of municipal solid waste. Sanitary landfills are for waste disposal rather than reduction.

Answer:

d. incineration
