Pols: Easy going ‘green’

The Brooklyn Paper's Dana Rubinstein is reporting that Brooklyn politicians are falling over themselves trying to brand themselves GREEN. Some, like NYC Councilman Bill deBlasio, have a record that stands in their way:

Councilman Bill DeBlasio (D–Park Slope)

Green initiative: Rid public schools of Styrofoam lunch trays.

Less-green initiative: Supports Atlantic Yards, which critics say will block the sun, pollute the air and befoul the water.

NoLandGrab: DeBlasio is also going after Brooklyn development-crook Robert Scarano again. [Wonder if the Hagans will show?] However, his support for Atlantic Yards still stands in the way of a crusade against Brooklyn developer overlords.
