The correct comparison is: "Chemicals from fertilizers can release nitrous oxide, while landfills release methane."
Fertilizers have the potential to release nitrous oxide (N2O), particularly when they are applied to soil, while landfills primarily release methane (CH4) as organic waste decomposes anaerobically.
