Tires sent to landfills or dumped illegally are a significant concern. Old tires provide shelter for rodents, and can trap water, providing a breeding ground for mosquitoes. In landfills, tires consume up to 75 percent air space, In addition, tires may become buoyant and rise to the surface if they trap methane gases. #TrashTalkTuesday #ReduceReuseRecycle#RecycleTires
