Detailed Solution

The production of a large amount of biodegradable waste will create a threat to the environment. These include:

  1. The accumulation of excess biodegradable waste leads to pollution. So these wastes should be degraded in a particular time to avoid pollution.
  2. Waste accumulation will provide breeding grounds for mosquitoes, worms, and flies, which may carry a variety of diseases.
  3. A large amount of waste in water can pollute it and make it unhealthy for regular purposes.
  4. Decomposing also leads to the emission of dangerous greenhouse gases. These gases have the potential to build up in the atmosphere and cause global warming.
