This method, according to Palmioto et al. produces landfill gas emissions created by the biodegradation of accumulated waste (Palmiotto, Fattore and Paiano). The unpleasant odor given off by landfills is formed by different gases such as methane, carbon dioxide, sulfur and volatile organic compounds known to be carcinogenic or teratogenic (Rushton). An interesting fact emerges when we talk about the reproductive health outcomes of people located near a landfill compared to waste incineration. Cases of birth defects and low birth weight in newborns arise when assessing the consequences of exposure to landfill gas. Filder et al. carried out a study in a population near the Nant-y-Gwyddon landfill in South Wales, UK, to assess reproductive health outcomes. It turned out that after the creation of the landfill, the incidence of all birth defects and low weight appeared (Fielder, Poon-King and Palmer). On the other hand, the unpleasant and constant odor of the Medlay landfill can produce emotional disturbances, in addition to physical symptoms such as respiratory problems, eye irrigation and nausea among residents of Doral (Palmiotto, Fattore and
