I really have to laugh at “progressive cities” revelations about such things like this. We’ve been doing this for 40 years. All food waste goes in the compost, gets ground up and then into the garden again. It’s funny when “progressives” discover this. I wonder what they have been doing all these years? Smoking too much pot? Spaced out? Not very progressive
Anecdotely, I'd say conservatives are "greener" than the libs - seems a larger percentage compost, garden, recycle/reuse, can, mend, etc. than the libtards I know.
