In the media and debates, one can often read / hear that we live in the Anthropocene, ie the period in which human activities have a major impact on the Earth's climate and environment. The author of the term anthropocene is the atmospheric Nobel laureate Paul J. Crutzen, who, together with biologist E. Stoermer, popularized it and introduced it into scientific terminology. As scientists discuss when the Anthropocene period actually began, it is clear that people, regardless of the beginning of the Anthropocene, generated more or less waste as part of the anthropogenic mass in all periods, and this waste was managed differently at different times, usually by disposing arranged landfills. Scientists have also identified landfills as a source of methane because landfills contain biodegradable waste covered with an inert material that prevents air access - thus creating the conditions for the formation of methane, one of the greenhouse gases. Part of the Communication from the Commission of the European Parliament, the Council, the European Economic and Social Committee and the Committee of the Regions on the EU Strategy for Reducing Methane Emissions COM (2020) 663 final (hereinafter: the Strategy) also applies to landfills for methane production. The strategy becomes a key document focusing on methane. It announced the analysis and possible changes / harmonization of regulations for various areas from energy, agriculture, all the way to waste management. At the end of 2021, a proposal for a regulation of the Regulation of the European Parliament and of the Council on methane emissions reduction in the energy sector and amending Regulation (EU) 2019/942, COM / 2021/805 final was published. Landfill management is part of waste management, so that all those who manage landfills, according to the Strategy, must analyze the operation of landfills and suggest ways to reduce methane emissions and thus contribute to climate change mitigation. This paper discusses the current operation of the Kutina landfill, the results of prescribed measurements and opportunities to reduce methane emissions and the implementation of the Strategy on the example of the Kutina landfill. Also, the conclusion proposes measures to reduce methane emissions in accordance with the priorities of the Strategy and other documents.
