1. An eco-friendly wearable article comprising at least two components including: a nutrient complex and an elastomeric mixture;
wherein the nutrient complex comprises anionic sulphate ions and cationic salts of iron (II) and copper (II) that are present as free ions such that they are available on a surface of the article, to interact with at least one selected from the group consisting of methane-consuming microorganisms, methanotrophs, methanotrophic microorganisms, and methanotrophic organisms including species which feed on or consume methane present in landfill, to effectively reduce methane gas emissions during landfill biodegradation process of the article.
