Salt is worth money. If you have a bunch of salty leaves, you should be able to process them and get the salt out.

Might cost you more money to get the salt out than you can sell the salt for, though.

Just dump the leaves in the ocean. Biodegradable and the salt came from the ocean anyways. The leaves if too concentrated will intake a lot of water and their cells burst. Or the leaves won't be too concentrated and will be eaten by nature.
