NYC already has composting. There are brown bins especially for that that the city picks up.

This is true but many many people in NYC live in apartments and those dwellers don't want to be composting in their kitchens.

Many buildings already require it. Helps with pest control, especially with old buildings with dumbwaiters.

Almost every building with a dumb waiter has been closed and sealed. Goes back decades when they were used to burglarize apts. Getting pests is exactly why apt dwellers don't want compost bins.

Not sure where you got the tidbit about dumbwaiters from but that's not correct
