We have community composting, it’s pretty awesome. 3 garbage bins: recycling, organics, and trash. All get picked up weekly. The organics go to a municipal compost facility. The resulting compost is used in the city parks and landscaping and also bagged for sale at garden centers.
Ours, too, and its so cheap.
Good luck enforcing something like that.
In Germany this is already done in many places (e.g. Aachen). Additionally, it's a social norm here, to the point that I don't think that i know anyone who doesn't compost.
