When you look back there is more than just rubbish lying about in our Landfill sites and helluva lot more than methane to worry about. Thinking about the trash which dates back quite a few decades, and what it is made of, including pesticides, sprays and polishes all of which has been thrown out over the years are just grabbing the attention of the environmental scientists.

In the early 1910s the acceleration in creation of made made chemicals rose very steeply after and during World War One. At the same time the sanitary landfill became acceptable and very popular concept in North America. These landfill sites could expand and the waste was really crammed in, this was at a time of expansion on many fronts including novel chemical creation, waste generation and increased consumer consumption.

The only trouble is nobody knows what happens when these chemicals and their byproducts interact.
