Mayor Adams Introduces 'Trash Revolution' with Wheelie Bins in Manhattan
Jul 8, 2024, 03:14 PM
Mayor Eric Adams has introduced a new initiative in Manhattan aimed at revolutionizing trash management in New York City. The 'Trash Revolution' involves the mandatory use of standardized plastic bins, commonly referred to as wheelie bins, for buildings with 1-9 units, replacing the current practice of using loose garbage bags. This initiative is part of the next phase in a broader effort to clean up the streets and improve waste management in the city. The announcement was made through a seventeen-minute video, highlighting the significance of the new bins. The move has sparked various reactions, with some praising the effort to address longstanding waste issues, while others view it as a basic solution that should have been implemented earlier.
