While Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s Green New Deal sputtered in Washington D.C., her home city of New York has embraced key pillars of the plan.

When asked about it on Morning Joe, de Blasio outlined the proposal.

“We are making the Green New Deal come alive here in New York City,” he said. “It’s three very basic ideas. One, the biggest source of emissions in New York City is buildings.”

According to legend, Augustus Caesar, the founder of the Roman Empire once famously boasted, “I found Rome a city of bricks and left it a city of marble.”

Mayor de Blasio has found a metropolis built of steel and glass and wishes to leave it as God know what.

Wrong! The biggest source of emissions in NY are politicians like Mayor de Blasio and Chuck Schumer.

He should tear down the ones they already have. They are like Confederate statues or something.

I know but they always have to amend their plans due to major oversights.

Inefficient compared to what? Low rise wood buildings?

If you can kill most of the people you won’t need any buildings.

Sounds like that’s the plan.
