Why compost is a good thing?

Plants love compost, the earth loves compost.

It's a controlled decomposition resulting in the most efficient recycling process available for general organic matter.

When one keeps the pile aerated, thus the decomposition anaerobic, keeps the pile within a carbon:nitrogen ration of about thirty parts carbon to one part nitrogen, thus ensuring more of the matter will be left over as physical matter, fully decomposed and stablized, humus (finished compost) is what plants look for in soil, it is really concentrated with nutrients.

Best fertilizer on earth, organic, free, and you can never add too much of it to the soil. The more you add, the more fertile and healthy the soil gets.

Also, when compost is finished, it represents a fairly large amount of gases that would have been created by the sort of decomposition that landfills foster.

Anaerobic over-nitrogenous decomposition creates a lot of methan, carbon dioxide, ammonia (piss smell), hydrogen, and probably a little of a few others.

Composting converts all that carbon to something stable and inert, good for the soil, instead of greenhouse gases you put that carbon in the ground and the earth is happy.
