New York City to force coal-fired pizzerias to cut emissions to combat climate change

So I came across this article about New York City taking on climate change - by targeting pizzerias! Apparently, coal-fired ovens are a major contributor to air pollution, so the city is requiring all of these pizza places to reduce their emissions.

Basically, the new regulations mean that restaurants that use these ovens must install pollution-reducing equipment by 2023, or switch to different types of ovens entirely. There are around 400 coal-fired pizzerias in the city, so this is actually a pretty big deal.

As someone who loves a good slice of pizza (who doesn’t?), I find this both amusing and impressive. It’s great to see a city taking action to combat climate change in any way it can, even if that means cracking down on our beloved pizza joints.

But on a more serious note, this is an important and necessary step. As we all know, climate change is a huge threat to our planet, and cities are particularly vulnerable to its effects. By reducing emissions wherever possible, New York is not only doing its part to fight climate change, but also setting an example for other cities to follow.

In conclusion, while it may seem funny that pizza is at the center of this story, it’s clear that New York City’s efforts to reduce emissions are no laughing matter. The city is taking real action to address a pressing issue, and that’s something that we can all get behind.
