Show Notes
New York Citys composting initiative faced a setback under former Mayor Eric Adams, who paused fines for mixing trash with food scraps, leading to a significant drop in participation. Current Mayor Zohran Mamdani reinstated fines, but enforcement remains lenient. A public awareness campaign is now underway, focusing on apartment dwellers, to boost composting rates and save on waste costs.
