Air pollution section needs update

The main reference does not load, it is old and does not reflect current air quality statistics for the region. Check for example https://www.usnews.com/news/best-states/new-york

"While New York City has a larger population than all but eleven states, if it were granted statehood it would rank 51st in per-capita energy use." Anyone see anything wrong with this sentence, very misleading. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.44.73.164 (talk) 19:56, 5 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Additional toxic sites:

I read an article in today's Metro [1] that listed six toxic sites. This article only deals with the Greenpoint spill.

ConEd site at 115th and FDR, site of former manufactured gas plant
Hunts Point, bio-disposal sites
Under the Bayonne Bridge, a ship spilled raw uranium ore in 1939
Newtown Creek
Meeker Avenue Plume
Gowanus Canal

I'll also add one more to the list: Hudson river PCB dregding. See Hudson River#Pollution. --ChrisRuvolo (t) 18:48, 18 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Serious redundancy issues

There is substantial replication of text in this article. Vranak (talk) 13:23, 6 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Serious problems with citations in chapter "Energy Efficiency"

Pretty much none of the citations links to an existing site. Could someone please update the citations? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 5.1.129.32 (talk) 10:47, 29 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Rewording section heading

Population density in New York City should be changed to Population impact in New York City as this reflects the content more accurately.
This section talks about transportation emissions, GHG emissions, air quality, electrical consumption. All of which are population impacts. I will wait a few days for discussion before changing it TheKevlar 19:45, 8 July 2021 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mkevlar (talk • contribs)
