The correct comparison is:
Chemicals from fertilizers can release nitrous oxide, while landfills release methane.
Fertilizers, particularly those containing nitrogen, can lead to the release of nitrous oxide (N2O) through microbial processes in the soil. On the other hand, landfills are significant sources of methane (CH4) due to the anaerobic decomposition of organic matter.
