The production of an enormous amount of biodegradable wastes will eventually lead to create a threat towards the environment. 

It will have the following impacts on the environment: 

• The degradation of such a huge amount of biodegradable material requires a large amount of area to decompose it by composting. 

• At the time of decomposing massive biodegradable wastes will emit or generate an unbearable foul smell that will cause serious health issues and air- borne diseases. This will also make life miserable. 

• Meanwhile, the area of depository which contains all the biodegradable waste materials will serve as a breeding ground for various flies and mosquitoes which will result in spreading of various diseases.

• If the large amount of biodegradable waste materials is not disposed property then such incomplete degradation will cause clogging of drains.
