NY to curb dirty heat, use landfills for solar

By musiclover - Thu Apr 21, 4:39 pm

New York City plans to restrict the use of dirty heating fuels, use its capped landfills for solar farms, and issue loans for green and energy efficiency upgrades to home owners.

New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg announced the latest initiatives for PlaNYC, the city’s sustainability plan, on Thursday at a press conference in Harlem.

It’s part of the lead up to Earth Day, which is Friday, April 22, and also happens to be the anniversary of when PlaNYC was first announced, in 2007.
