TIL: Oakland doesn't accept BPI-Certified Compostable Plastics (lemmy.world)

Everywhere else I've lived in the Bay Area lets you put BPI-Certified compostable plastics (e.g., compost bin liners and spudware) in your bin, but apparently Oakland explicitly forbids all such items. What are you folks doing to collect food waste without it being disgusting? Even using a liner I have to scrub the heck out of the kitchen compost bin every few days to keep it from growing mold and I despair at what it'll be without a liner. I see that Oakland recommends using newspaper but who has easy access to physical newspapers in the year 2025?

CHP uses AI surveillance to arrest Bay Area suspect on Oakland bus (www.sfgate.com)

Title is misleading. Suspect was first detected driving a stolen vehicle by AI powered license plate readers. The rest was normal police tracking.
