Marc Steiner wind and solar are not more expensive. Many of these jobs pay better wages than fossil fuel jobs. There are more renewable energy jobs now than fossil fuel jobs. Wind and solar are cheaper than fossil fuels now. Get your facts straight
There is no MAN MADE "CLIMATE CRISIS". Professing to be wise, NYC has become a city of FOOLS…
Such crappy interview audio (:-( Gotta bail. (:-(
wow youtube comments. enjoy them while they last 🙁
Well done New York.ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ðŸ˜
climate change is bs its not man made, now see ny business implode. since when do we listen to 2year olds? your taxes going up. get ready for bankruptcies to go up too and a mass exodus to ensue. real globalist news channel!
Oregon was going to do this but Republicans walked off their jobs.
2040? Still quite half assed…
Loopholes when you are already set past the end of the runway
Not good enough if scientists gave us 11ish years and, like with any modern regulatory law, implementation will be delayed or watered down by lobbyists
This is interesting. What they don't address is that coal, and oil, are labor intensive. Solar is passive. Once it's set up, maintenance is a minor factor. After this
transition is complete, where will people work?
Windmill power generation, old fashioned way, everywhere….Solar panel battery charging, everywhere
It this realistic? What will it cost? You will need several new and large nuclear power plants. Charging you electric car for a 200 mile run will cost what? $150.00 . Yes there are nice thoughts here but might cost to much.
Create jobs? Really. Doing what? Picking up garbage? How productive is that? Will that make us rich? And if China can make our batteries and solar cells cheaper we are more screwed.
Keep dreaming. Eventually you will wake up.
Will the Koch brothers take this laying down….?
That should make all the rural NY state people real happy
No mention on some of the “fixes†such as hundreds of speed cameras that will mail you a ticket automatically… one of the reasons the French people have been protesting on the streets for 6 months now. It sounds good, just wait till YOU start paying for it. The devil is in the details not mentioned here. How can we be so gullible ?
If NY only cleaned their grounds… NYC is an open landfill.
Yeah, but they all ran on passing the NYHA (single payer) and then stabbed progressives in the back once elected!
Positive news for all of us. Hopefully, everyone will jump on this for the new jobs.
Great work, Adrien! If we don't do it, the Chinese will.
Props to New York.. America should be at the cutting edge of clean energy
It will be mostly under Water by then.
Carbonfree mean no one will live in NY either: because people produce carbon .
Fossil Fuel Energy Matters Too!
You said "Not just a living wage but a wage you can live on" do you not see the stupidity of that comment?
Kudos to New York, you should be proud as punch for leading the way in cleaning the city up and Kudos to the young people for staying woke and active! ðŸ‘ðŸ‘ðŸ‘ðŸ‘💙
