Panel Suggests 100 Ways Buildings Can Be Greener

The New York Times February 1, 2010 By Mireya Navarro

The mayor and City Counsel had a bunch of suggestions for New York City's building codes more environmentally better by imposing energy-saving requirements on renovation work. A few ideas included insulating glass skyscrapers and a plan that would place the temperature controls in individual apartments, so it could eliminate any winter cold to vent out the excess heat.

I think it's a great idea how new york and other places are contributing to this idea as to how to become greener and it'll be beneficial for all of us in the long run. People need to realize that global warming is a serious issue and if we all take part in helping out, the effects will be shown.
