Survey says YES.

In Japan, Panasonic sells a very popular smart toilet that learns who you are by estimating your weight and percent body fat and then chemically analyzes your output and reports it to a health monitoring service..."
There was a family in NYC that was raising chickens in their trendy, Chelsea apartment.
wow, not only is feudalsim back, but can we now resume just tossing everything out a window? that’s be cooL....
I guess the legislators feel they have less in common with humans than they do with rats, cockroaches and flies...
i believe that’s been a matter of record for awhile
s Seattle run by feel good.liberals??? Is that a subtext to all of this???
I don’t know that but it is across the river from Portland Oregon - does that explain a little?
And just how can apartment dwellers and those who live in condos with no yard “compost” their waste? Do the nannies ever think these things through? If I remember correctly orange peels and coffee grounds aren’t supposed to be put in a garbage disposal, are they?
Why doesn’t the city ask the residents to put all compostable garbage together, pick it up and take it to a facility that will use it to create compost the city can then sell for a profit?
What about food rejected by school children in their lunches? Even before Michelle got involved mandating what can and can not be provided for school lunches, schools threw out massive amounts of food each day.
i’ve heard of lions and alligators but never chickens; thatIS trendy. Nobody raises gorillas though; they cn help with house work but then you have a 500 lb gorilla in the room, and...wiat...does that make sense?
1) You may not throw away food products in the garbage. You must compost.
2) You may not compost, those create greenhouse gasses. You must incinerate.
3) You may not incinerate, that adds to atmospheric particle pollution. You must sequester and store.
4) You may not sequester and store, that poses disease risks.
5) You may not eat.
who is going to open and inspect all the black plastic bags?
HEY!!! You got a bathtub, RIGHT? KWITCHERBITCHIN
Red wiggler worms. If done right it produces almost no odor (usually much less than a average kitchen waste basket) and you can do it in a small container that fits under your kitchen sink. Of course then you have worm castings or what gardeners call blackgold. And if you don't garden then you got to get rid of the worm castings somehow.
Having lived in the greater Seattle area I can say confidently the place is a sea of boiling putrid stupid. The place is just unlivable....
That someone had to vote for...
“Food scraps and food-soiled paper can be placed only in your city-provided food and yard waste cart. Do not put food scraps and food-soiled paper in any other yard waste container”

It isn’t a big deal. It just costs much more money to dispose of the “garbage” than “food and compostables” which can be treated and sold as compost.
So they’re enforcing the rules for separation.
If residents don’t like it they can tell the city to charge more and not enforce the seperating.
I must be the only person who tried composting, used it in my garden, and promptly had all my vegetable plants die on me. Worst gardener in the world.
Also, there are only some things that can go into the compost pile. Left over meat? No way!
School cafeterias get a pass since what they will put in isn’t rea food
LOL! Sounds like a plan. Guess I’ll be going out to various establishments to take care of my business.
