If you live within the New York City tri-state area, you will know that there is nothing like ringing in the Christmas holiday than taking a trip to Rockefeller Center to visit the tree. Rockefeller has over 500,000 visitors each year and continues to follow the holiday tradition. This year, Rockefeller Center has decided to do things a little different. Instead of using the standard Christmas lights that everyone is used to, they will be using LED bulbs to light the tree. These LED bulbs will all be solar powered by a new solar station being installed on the roof top of 45 Rockefeller Center. These LED bulbs will help reduce the amount of energy consumption, which as we all know, if a large problem within our environment. As for the tree itself, that will be used for lumber after the holiday season is over.
Mayor Bloomberg and NYC are doing their best this year to do their part
in saving the planet. If you can, take a trip to NYC and make sure to
visit Rockefeller Center this holiday season. This year, NYC will make
“go green” history. Do not one of the few who will miss out on
experiencing all that NYC has to offer. This year, NYC will truly be
painted “green” in the spirit of the holiday season! For more
