NYC mayor calls for wind turbines atop skyscrapers [National Wind Watch]
Wind turbines would top New York City skyscrapers and bridges and dot the city’s shorelines, while the mighty tides that drive the Hudson and East Rivers would also generate power under a new plan Mayor Michael Bloomberg presented on Tuesday.
“I think it would be a thing of beauty if, when Lady Liberty looks out on the horizon, she not only welcomes new immigrants, but lights their way with a torch powered by an ocean windfarm,” Bloomberg said in a copy of a speech he will give in Las Vegas at the 2008 National Clean Energy Summit.
