De Blasio's climate rhetoric on the stump doesn't mirror reality back home (only 11.59 years left)
Politico ^ | 5/30/19 | DANIELLE MUOIO, DAVID GIAMBUSSO

**SNIP**

De Blasio - known in New York City for being shuttled from his mayoral mansion in an SUV, albeit a hybrid model, to his gym in another part of town - has made a recent habit of making grand pronouncements on his climate accomplishments.

“It’s a priority unlike any other because we deal with, obviously, the health care issues, we deal with education, we deal with so many other issues, but nothing compares to survival,” de Blasio said during recent campaign swing through Iowa.

But whether it's building emissions, organic waste collection or even protections in the event of another major storm, the New York City mayor's priorities seem to have been largely elsewhere during his tenure, and his actual accomplishments on climate often fall short of his oratory.

**SNIP**

In 2015, he declared he would set the city on a course toward “zero waste” where 90 percent of city refuse would be diverted from landfills by 2030. That initiative appears way behind schedule.

Environmental groups say there’s concern landlords could avoid making energy efficiency improvements - the original intent of the bill - by only purchasing the credits and not upgrading their buildings.

What a scam.

BTW, when the leftist Politico tells you that you suck as a leftist, you must really suck.

I thought the brilliant Beto revised it to ten years. I need to know if it’s ten or twelve....I have to rack up my credit card bills accordingly.

Everybody hates Bill de Blasio.

The Girl Scouts say,

“Would you like to buy some Girl Scout cookies? Unless you’re Bill de Blasio. We hate that son of a bitch. He can eat a rat.”

He should go to the LA system to cut down on putting waste in landfills. Just don't collect it.
