SUMMARY:A Book Talk: The Sustainability Class
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a book talk with authors Vijay Kolinjivadi and Aaron Vansintjan as they discuss their newest book The Sustainability Class.\n\nMore than ever\, urban residents want to be green\, yet to cater to their interests\, a green-tech service economy has sprung up\, co-opting well-intentioned concerns over sustainability to sell a resource-heavy and exclusive “lifestyle environmentalism.” This has made cities more unsustainable and inaccessible to the working class. The Sustainability Class explores\, with biting humor\, how investors around the world are rushing to capitalize on going green. By contrast\, real-world examples of movements for housing and food production\, transport\, and waste management demonstrate how ordinary people are building a more ecological future by working together\, against all odds. In doing so\, they show us how sustainability can be reclaimed for everyone. Sustainability isn’t about vibes and superficial green facades. It’s about building people power to reimagine the world.\n\n“A scathing critique. . . . Readers will come away more savvy and empowered.”\n—Publishers Weekly (starred review)”A powerful challenge to a way of thinking that has turned sustainability into a virtue-signaling lifestyle.”\n—Kirkus Reviews\n\nAbout the Authors\n\n\nVijay Kolinjivadi is an assistant professor at the School for Community and Public Affairs\, Concordia University in Montreal\, Canada. He is also a co-editor of the website Uneven Earth. He has been published in Al Jazeera\, New Internationalist\, Truthout\, and The Conversation. \n \nAaron Vansintjan is Policy Manager at Food Secure Canada and the founder and co-editor of Uneven Earth and co-author of The Future Is Degrowth. He has been published in The Guardian\, Truthout\, openDemocracy\, and The Ecologist.

SUMMARY:DSNY Residential Bins Info Sessions
DESCRIPTION:Residential Waste Containerization\nTo remove the mountains of black bags on New York City streets\, reclaim public space\, and improve the quality of life for all New Yorkers\, DSNY has announced a plan to containerize all residential trash beginning fall 2024. \nThe new rules also apply to special-use buildings receiving DSNY collection – including City agencies\, nonprofits\, houses of worship\, and professional offices in residential buildings. \nInfo Sessions\nJoin a virtual info session to learn more about DSNY’s new containerization rules. \n\nThursday\, January 9 at 4:00 PM\nThursday\, January 23 at 6:00 PM\nThursday\, February 6 at 4:00 PM\nThursday\, February 13 at 6:00 PM\nThursday\, February 27 at 4:00 PM\nThursday\, March 13 at 6:00 PM\nThursday\, March 27 at 4:00 PM\nThursday\, April 10 at 6:00 PM\nThursday\, April 24 at 4:00 PM\n\nResidential Buildings with 1-9 Units\nBeginning November 12\, 2024\, all properties with 1-9 residential units will be required to use bins\, 55 gallons or less\, with secure lids for trash set out. \nIf you already use a bin with a secure lid that is 55 gallons or less for trash set out\, you may continue to use it until June 2026. After that\, you will need to switch to the official NYC Bin. \nLearn more about NYC Bin requirements. \nOfficial NYC Bins\nThe NYC Bin is the next step in New York City’s plan to get black bags of garbage off the streets and make our city cleaner and safer for all New Yorkers. \nOn July 8\, 2024\, the City unveiled the NYC Bin\, the official trash bin for properties with 1-9 residential units. Separate NYC Bins are also available for purchase for recycling and composting\, though they are not required. \nThe NYC Bin is now available for purchase at a significantly lower price than similar bins at retail stores\, at www.bins.nyc or by calling 1-855-NYC-BINS. \nNYC Bins are exclusively available for NYC property owners and building managers and will only be delivered to addresses within the five boroughs. \nThe NYC Bin was selected following the City’s release of an RFP in October 2023 to contract a vendor to produce official NYC Bins. In the RFP\, DSNY mandated that the vendor produce bins according to specifications including\, but not limited to: \n\nCost no more than $50 for the most common size\nAvailable in multiple sizes to accommodate different types of buildings.\nRat resistant\, easy to use by sanitation workers\, and compatible with mechanized collection trucks.\n\nDSNY will retrofit or replace hundreds of collection trucks\, adding mechanical tippers compatible with the new bins. This upgrade will speed up collection and minimize the possibility of spills that occur with manual collection. Two sanitation workers will be needed to operate the mechanism\, and this change will not affect DSNY workforce numbers. \nResidential Buildings with 10+ Units\nNYC is also advancing a plan to containerize trash in larger residential buildings. \nBuildings with 31 or more residential units will be required to use stationary\, on-street containers for their trash\, serviced by DSNY’s new automated side-loading garbage trucks. On-street containers will be assigned to a specific building\, solely for residents of that building. \nBuildings with 10 to 30 units will be able to choose between stationary on-street containers and smaller wheelie bins. \nThe first district with these containers will be Manhattan Community Board 9\, beginning Spring 2025\, with further expansion pending environmental review.

Strong Rope Brewery is owned and operated by husband and wife team\, Jason Sahler and Christina Quintero. As a New York state farm brewery\, our approach is to examine what truly regional beer is.

We strive to create beers with intention and care and give our ales and lagers a true sense of place. As a family-run business\, we support other local producers by serving New York state wine\, cider\, and spirits. \nUnder 21 policy: Please contact Strong Rope Brewery – Gowanus for details regarding underage entry \nFor more about Bonsai Bar and what to expect at our classes\, visit our website at: https://bonsaibar.com/products/strong-rope-gowanus \nHappens on the following Dates:\nJan 22\, 2025\, 6:00pm to 8:00pm Timezone: EST\nFeb 5\, 2025\, 6:00pm to 8:00pm Timezone: EST\nMar 5\, 2025\, 6:00pm to 8:00pm Timezone: EST
