NYC Sustainability

I found this article that is related to our readings this week.

The article discussed Mayor Bloomberg's approach to sustainability for New York City. Bloomberg introduced PlaNYC that provides a vision for future growth of New York City over the next 25 years. PlaNYC includes a plan to accommodate one million additional people while attempting to reduce the City’s greenhouse gas emissions by 30 percent. New York City has also committed to producing annual PlaNYC progress reports with sustainability indicators, as well as annual greenhouse gas emissions inventories.
