Schumer Introduces Plan To Require Buildings Across The Nation To Dramatically Increase Energy Efficiency Following Proposal That Bloomberg Introduced In NYC -- Sen Schumer's press release
Senator Charles Schumer has released a proposal to increase the energy efficiency of buildings throughout NYS and across the nation. His plan is based on one released by NYC Mayor Michael Bloomberg.
The plan calls for updates and overhauls of building codes and practices, some dating back to the 1960s, to consider energy efficiency and greenhouse gas reduction.
His press release isn't detailed enough to know whether his plans call for better outdoor lighting. Perhaps SELENE can help him and Mayor Bloomberg see that part of energy use reductions can be achieved through better outdoor lighting changes. A letter, email, or call from you would help!
