Abstrakt: The City Council of New York has approved a package of zoning changes that aim to make it easier for property owners to implement green technologies. The changes include promoting the use of solar panels, offshore wind manufacturing, electric vehicle charging infrastructure, and the electrification of buildings. The goal is to reduce the city's carbon emissions by 80% by 2050. The zoning changes will open up opportunities for solar panel use on parking lots, increase the availability of electric vehicle charging, and make carbon-cutting retrofits easier for building owners. The measure has received support from environmental advocates and the business community. [Extracted from the article]
