It stands up well as a good synopsis of how congestion pricing will improve NYC's sustainability. Bloomberg is on a roll lately as he unveils his environmental initiatives and explains how in reducing oil consumption and greenhouse gases we can also improve quality of life for millions of people in NYC.
