"I have prided myself on always working collaboratively to achieve results, but on this issue there is too much at stake, l cannot compromise or settle for half measures -- today, I am voting “NO” on the FY21 budget."

MSWAB will try our best to inform NYC residents of ways to try to stay #zerowaste during #CoronaVirus, including updates about the status of local waste collection, sharing tips on best practices for cleaning your reusables, quizzes about ♻️🆚🗑and more!
Stay safe, everyone!

Packed house at @Manhattan_SWAB meeting. Tonight’s presentation by @Chekpeds on #TOSS - trash off sidewalks, swapping out parking spots for curb storage of our garbage, like many cities around the world. Many prototypes out there. #NYC
Starting March 1st, plastic bags will be banned in NYC! 🎉 🌎 To help prepare residents for the change, I joined @NYCSanitation Commissioner Kathryn Garcia & @NRDCNY’s Eric Goldstein in Williamsburg this morning to distribute free, reusable DSNY bags.
@JoAnneSimonBK52 A minority of vested interests in concert with city agencies usually in darkness. Silly, really, given how the resident majorities are basically on the same page with reform and establishing basic fairness and equity. The devil's always in the details, however.
