Wow, the Nazis would be so proud to see their statist big government ideology thriving.
f**k em. i refuse to recycle. i pay for refuse service. they get it all in one container.
You're lucky you didn't set the planet on fire!
That would make me want to put a permanent red sign on my garbage can.
They disregard the impact of the pollution generated by the big machinery used to process the material, they ignore the pollution created by people driving out to the landfill to purchase the compost.
If the waste were buried in the landfill it would generate more methane which is recovered via an extensive piping system connected to electrical generators.
Additionally, adding food waste to the compost does not make for a superior compost. How would you like spreading compost in your garden only to find chicken or beef bones showing through the surface? Bones do not compost well. And even worse the food waste attracts “vectors” (rats, raccoons, skunks and other vermin, leading to potential public health problems (Bubonic Plague anyone?). Food waste buried in the landfill is covered every night, keeping the infectious pests out of the food source.
But what do we know about any of this? The Eco-Fascist religion knows better and forces their superior knowledge down our throats through stupid ordinances like this.
What if you put your own fake red tag on it.
And all your neighbors?
Or put them on the Mayor’s and City Council’s?
Poor dude is worm chow now.
What incredible irony, that such authoritarian...indeed borderline totalitarian people can still call themselves “liberal.”
I remember the episode of WKRP where one of the dj’s told the people to protest the garbage workers strike by dumping their garbage on the city hall steps. Sounds like we need to do that again.
Mr. Goodnesswins says...”I’d s**t in my garbage can...a lot”
Correct. Environmentalism is not about a clean environment.
I’d be happy to donate our weekly load of cat manure and used cat litter to have some bureaucrat rifle through.
Nothing like a series compost fires to inspire a new ordnance.
Separate all food trash and dump it weekly in the parking lot of your nearest city building.
Yes! Resist soft tyranny.
The first thing that came to my mind was live bobcat or skunk...
The pig in the sink has definitely always been a friend of mine.
I’m betting the waste collection contractors push for this because it boosts the bottom line to have you pre-sort what you’re already paying them to pick up.
Careful, it’s probably under camera surveillance.
Not to mention they double the amount of containers (more plastic products made from dirty oil) and either double the trucks or double the routes...again, more pollution.
