What you need to know about California's new composting law — a game changer for food waste
Please, Log in or Register to view URLs content!

Senate Bill 1383 requires all residents and businesses to separate such “green” waste from other trash, but the program will be rolled out gradually for homes and businesses in the coming months, with the actual startup date varying, depending on the location of your home or business.
Fines can be levied for failing to separate organic refuse from other trash. But those charges aren’t scheduled to begin until 2024. CalRecycle, the state agency overseeing the change,

, which provides a home pickup service in some neighborhoods, for a fee.


Isn’t garbage just garbage? Why are California lawmakers requiring us to separate organic waste from the rest of our trash?
Scientists have found that organic waste dumped into traditional landfills decomposes and creates methane, a super-pollutant with as much as 80 times the Earth-warming potency of carbon dioxide.
To slow the advance of global warming, the state wants to redirect the material to composting centers or anaerobic digestion facilities, where it can help sink carbon back into the Earth or capture natural gas to — for instance — power trash trucks.


...but it's so "authoritarian" like traffic laws, and education requirements an whatnotanymore these days.
...WTF?

I've always composted.

Why are Californians dirty animals that need legislation to do this?
Damn….relax.

@Dove remember when we fought what seems a decade ago when you were going through hell on VF. I got banned because of it. My words manipulated by moderators. That was some crazy shit yeah? I was all for child protection from parents not of sound mind.

The point being…I had trouble with a mother on drugs (my ex wife) and it has irreversibly destroyed the lives of three children that are scarred as adults.

Point being, keeping organics out of a landfill is minuscule compared to all the methane produced naturally. You people are building bridges to nowhere.

Your bullshit propaganda is a super pollutant!

Because composting, an ancient farming technique, is far off in left field?

True, but making shit like this mandatory makes people like me burn tires in the back yard. Plus, its literally a waste of time.

Take earth day for example. On earth day, I start all the cars and let them idle for 1 hour.
