The @nycsanitation Queens curbside #composting program officially returns tomorrow!
If you’ve got food or yard scraps, just use your bin and throw it in — it’s a win!
My office is dedicated to building a more sustainable & equitable NYC. That's why I'm asking @NYCSanitation to reconsider their decision to pause the Queen's composting program this winter. An accessible and reliable composting program is what our communities deserve.
"Addressing NYC's organic waste output isn’t just about keeping our streets rodent free. It’s about communities…where our waste ends up in polluting incinerators and towering landfills, including the largest in the state: Seneca Meadows." https://t.co/EHgIDMtgSJ
One #plasticfree day leads to more!
So what are you waiting for?
