Global Warming

Just days after his congestion tax was voted down in Albany, New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg brushed himself off and announced another eco-friendly design for the city: the installation of solar panels on municipal buildings in all five boroughs. "Congestion pricing was important, it was new, and it was controversial... but it was only one of 127 items in the PlaNYC agenda," Bloomberg said at an environmental conference at Georgetown University.

Chapel Hill Goes Green

Chapel Hill, North Carolina has been working very hard lately to make the world greener. Recently, a biking incentive was placed in the town for employees in Chapel Hill to bike to their jobs and to run errands with them. The local government has also decided to build green public buildings from now on and UNC is doing the same. UNC is also urging their students to make wise green decisions too.
