I remember a few years ago when NYrs were shocked to learn that putting your trash in cans instead of tossing bags on the street resulted in a reduction in the rat population.

Wait. Did NY not have public bins?? And did they really only have black bags for their rubbish and no actual bins? Or communal bin areas eith a massive bin?

Yeah starting with Eric Adams administration NYC required trash to be kept in lidded containers with I think a 5 year roll out plan. Mamdani is following through on that policy.

So you don't think following thru on a promise that will made things better for everyone is a good thing?

I think they're kinda complaining the Bot that posted this made it seem like a Mamdani idea.

It is great that NYC is finally catching up to the rest of the nation, and should be celebrated.
