Bloomberg backs greener future
New York Mayor Michael
Bloomberg today backed the City of Sydney's efforts to cut emissions and plan for the future saying it's what all global cities
are doing.
In a video message, to be played tonight at the Council's State of the City report back, Mayor Bloomberg
praises the City's greenhouse gas reduction target - one of the most ambitious of any government in Australia - to slash emissions
by 70 per cent by 2030. http://www.investinaustralia.com/news/bloomberg-backs-sydney%E2%80%99s-greener-future-45j7

Bloomberg on rail, and green infrastructure
Bloomberg and Green Party for rail: U.S. Must Modernize
Its Infrastructure, Invest In High-Speed Rail With GDP languishing and job-creation rates well below what’s needed
to put the economy back on track, the key to recovery lies with American infrastructure, says a green post partisan group
headed by Michael Bloomberg and Arnold Schwarzenegger. U.S. infrastructure, far from being
the best in the world, is due for an overhaul, says the Building America’s Future Educational Fund, a Green coalition
that Bloomberg, the mayor of New York, and Schwarzenegger, the former governor of California, co-chair with former Pennsylvania
governor Ed Rendell. If the country’s infrastructure isn’t modernized, they say, the U.S. will lose its competitive
edge. “If we are going to maintain our economic dominance, we have to get
on the stick and get on it fast,” Rendell said earlier this week. On Monday, the BAF Fund released a report calling upon policymakers to invest $200 billion a year in rail infrastructure for the next 10 years, a plan it says
could create nearly 5 million jobs over the next decade.

Michael Bloomberg has been the Mayor of New York City since January of 2002. One of
the biggest domestic issues that Mayor Bloomberg has been dealing with is New York’s role in preserving the environment,
building rail, and renewable energy. Aside from motivating his own city, Mayor Bloomberg has been instrumental leading C-40
cities around the world and motivating a number of other large cities to make changes. For the Green Party, Bloomberg
leads with deeds. 1) Extension of Compliance Deadline for Energy Benchmark Laws. Recently, Mayor Bloomberg
created a new energy benchmark law whereby commercial and residential buildings that take up more than 50,000 square feet
need to benchmark their total water and energy consumption. This is in an effort to see how much is used and how water consumption can be decreased and how buildings can become more
energy efficient. There are penalties associated with the law if these buildings do not comply with these laws.

Bloomberg gives $30 million to help minorites
Bloomberg to spend millions of his money to help black, Latino malesNew York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg on Thursday announced the launch of a major policy initiative to aid the
city's minority youth. And he's footing a good chunk of the bill himself. "We believe it is one of the most ambitious and comprehensive attacks on racial disparity ... that
any city has ever undertaken," Bloomberg said Thursday. The mayor will contribute $30 million from his personal philanthropic foundation
to the effort, which is a public-private partnership. Another $30 million will come from billionaire hedge funder George Soros'
Open Society Foundations.

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.
