New York's Green Agenda - Mayor Plans Energy Conservation Regulations

New York's Green Agenda - Mayor Plans Energy Conservation Regulations

April 24, 2007

New NY gov Eliot Spitzer is calling for conservation. He's proposing a combination of legislation and regulations to get the state to consume less energy by 2015. Although the details haven't been revealed, the NY Times reported that these will include stricter energy standards for appliances, and upping the ante for energy efficiency on (so-called) green buildings. There's also talk about building & installing renewable energy generation facilities.

The reasoning for this is simple - by using less energy the state will save money.
