Which of the following is not a benefit of recycling municipal solid waste? 

"Increasing greenhouse gas emissions" is not a benefit of recycling municipal solid waste.

Recycling municipal solid waste provides many benefits, including:

Reducing the need for landfills - Recycling diverts materials from landfills, reducing the volume of waste that needs to be disposed of in these facilities.

Creating jobs in the recycling industry - Recycling provides employment opportunities in industries that collect, process, and transform waste materials into new products.

Conserving natural resources - Recycling reduces the demand for virgin materials, such as trees, minerals, and oil, by providing a source of raw materials from waste materials.

"Increasing greenhouse gas emissions" is not a benefit of recycling. In fact, recycling helps to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by avoiding the energy-intensive processes required to extract, process, and transport virgin materials. Recycling also reduces methane emissions from landfills, which are potent greenhouse gas.
