Good idea. But those turbines would have to be really small. Can't interfere with the skyline views, or anything like that. This should do:

Not really. This is what it means to respect the wishes of constituents.
Pssstt - cover Manhattan island with wind turbines. That’s the ticket!
Let them freeze in the dark.
Good. Let them freeze in the dark.

I was referring to the constituents.
got it, thanks.
I disagree. This is what happens when politicians ignore the wishes of constituents - except for the loudmouth minority that the pols agree with.

That was the cry many years ago when the oil prices spiked during the Carter years, when oil exploration was prohibited EVERYWHERE in the US, in a spate of overregulation and “turning down the thermostat”.
Also, all the natural gas use was strictly limited, cutting off the gaslight-mantle yard lights which were once a feature of many homes, and most especially shutting off the natural-gas fired searchlight beacon which once shown above the Playboy Mansion in Chicago, and was a great guide for incoming pilots.

F’n idiots. It wasn’t even oil, it was natural gas. They made their bed let them lie in it and they are going to need more blankets.
It will make for a lot of 2 cat nights. Idiots.
NYS wants to be the first to make every building green. Bunch of idiots.

Fredo is owned by the radical left, do their bidding or they give the money to your opposition and release all other the information they have...
I guess shutting down the Indian Point Nuclear Power Plant (about 2000 MW) within the next couple of years won’t be a problem. It is located about 35 miles up the Hudson River from New York City.
Reminds me of the TEXAS bumper sticker.
DRIVE LIKE HELL! FREEZE A YANKEE!
New York joins South Africa and Germany in getting rid of unfashionable fossil fuel power plants and even getting rid of them altogether in SA’s case.
