On this episode…

We get to compost our food scraps. Yay!!! OrganicsLA is a curbside organics recycling program from the City of Los Angeles, mandated by Senate Bill 1383. This statewide mandate is aimed at keeping organic waste out of landfills and reducing greenhouse gas emissions.

This was effective as of January 1, 2022, but not put into practice. California SB 1383 is a statewide effort to reduce emissions and is finally being implemented. Find out what you need to know and do, to start collecting and start composting your food scraps.
