New York City Greens its buildings
New York City Greens
its BuildingsBy BRYAN WALSH In reality, New York is far
more environmentally friendly than most think. In fact, if every American lived in New York, the U.S. would be a world leader
on the climate front, instead of a laggard. Why? Efficiency. Nearly 71,000 people live in every square mile of Manhattan alone.
That means people live in smaller homes and travel shorter distances, often by walking, biking or public transit. The result:
New York's carbon emissions are less than a third of the per capita national average.

Bloomberg, and Green Parties worldwide, call for Ai Weiwei release
While the prominent artist Ai Weiwei is currently detained in China, in New York City his artwork is drawing attention
to his plight.
On Tuesday at the Pulitzer Fountain in Manhattan, New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg said it was
a bittersweet honor celebrating the opening of Ai’s sculpture exhibition—given that the artist is detained by
authorities in China and his whereabouts are unknown.
[Michael Bloomberg, New York Mayor]:
“Today
we stand in solidarity with the millions of people around the world who hope that Ai Weiwei is quickly and safely released.
And we stand in solidarity with the billions of people who do not have the most fundamental of human rights, the most cherished
of all American values, and the most valuable of all New York’s riches, and that is free expression.”
Ai lived in New York for more than a decade, and studied at Parsons School of Design. http://english.ntdtv.com/ntdtv_en/news_china/2011-05-05/new-york-mayor-michael-bloomberg-calls-for-release-of-ai-weiwei.html

We Need More candidates, Less Apathy
We NEED More Trains, Less Traffic We NEED true fiscally conservative, and socially responsible people in federal office. Plain and simple.
It's socially responsible to balance the federal budget and pay off the federal debt within ten years. Michael
Bloomberg can get the job done.
