New York is reviving multiple programs cut during the pandemic, including curbside organics service, but it is not yet taking the steps many elected officials and advocates believe are necessary to achieve the city s 2030 zero waste goal.
This morning, Mayor Bill de Blasio and the Department of Sanitation (DSNY) announced residential curbside organics service will return earlier than anticipated after being suspended due to 2020 budget cuts. Residents in areas that previously had the program can sign up in August, with service resuming in October.
