New York Mayor Partners With Sierra Club
- {West Virginia}...New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg said Thursday he would donate $50 million over the next four years to help the Sierra Club shut-down a third of the nation's aging fleet of coal-fired plants with clean energy by 2020. Sierra Club Executive Director Michael Brune says the partnership will help the Sierra Club to work with communities nationwide as they tell one coal plant after another that inflicting asthma and other diseases on their children is unacceptable and that they will not accept coal pollution.
