The municipalities are already funding garbage. They call it tipping fees. Instead of having tipping fees that go to destroying land somewhere else, we would suggest that those tipping fees be directed at investments like the one that Enerkem made in Edmonton to diversify 95% of that municipal solid waste away from landfill and into a renewable content, whether it's a chemical like methanol or whether it's a renewable fuel like cellulosic ethanol.
