Don't recall ever seeing any organic gardening publications
recommending burning waste as opposed to composting it - save for
obviously diseased material.


Composting isn't all that much better. ISTR that fungal decay is about
third down the list of sources of dioxins in the environment.


We're all doomed!


I must admit my first thought was to wonder what proportion of the
fungal decay in the UK is happening in compost heaps.
