board meeting last night, and I failed to convince these nice “progressive” people to participate in the composting program that the city finally started to do in our low-priority area.

Basically, they are concerned that people who live in our building are too stupid or uncaring and would leave their food scraps out improperly, which would bring rats and roaches. 

This concerns them more than the methane that we would keep generating in the landfill.

I feel like we just pulled out of Paris Agreement, and I’ve done nothing to prevent it. All politics is really local.
