Jolly Green Bloomberg

Ho, ho, ho! (amNY/Lane Johnson)

More highlights from the mayor's plan to make NYC the greenest city in America:

Concentrate future housing construction around existing subway stations.

Allocate $15 million to clean up brownfields and make land suitable for development.

"Create new land" by buildings decks over highways and train tracks.

Complete the city¹s 1,800 mile bicycle master plan.

Expand ferry service in all boroughs.

Hire more traffic enforcement agents to tickets drivers who block intersections.

Establish a new financing authority called Sustainable Mobility and Regional Transportation (SMART) to build new subways and roads.

Introduce property tax breaks for owners who install solar panels.

Reduce city¹s water consumption by 60 million gallons a day over present levels, even as the city adds another million residents.
