NYC to Crack Down on Wood-Fired Pizza Joints to Reduce Carbon Emissions by Up to 75%
New York City will be cracking down on wood-fired pizza joints to reduce carbon emissions by up to 75%.
“All New Yorkers deserve to breathe healthy air and wood and coal-fired stoves are among the largest contributors of harmful pollutants in neighborhoods with poor air quality,” Department of Environmental Protection spokesman Ted Timbers said in a statement to the New York Post on Sunday. “This common-sense rule, developed with restaurant and environmental justice groups, requires a professional review of whether installing emission controls is feasible.”
According to the New York Post, some restaurateurs are currently negotiating with DEP officials.
Iconic pizzerias known for their wood-fired pizzas such as Grimaldis, Arturo’s, Lombardi’s, and others may be exempt from the mandate.

When NY punches you in the eye for making wood fired pizza pie thats AMORE.
No thats control and facism .
Hmmm lets see the environment is so bad we’re about to kill everythign and we need to shut down woodfired pizza in NYC but we are still running NASCAR races and buring hundreds of gallons of fuel a Min.
which do you think is worse ?? Nascar or Pizza Joints in NYC Which one pushes more or the Black Rock products thru advertising???
and this
You take away the thing that makes pizza taste great’: New York City’s pizzerias blast ‘unfunded mandate’ as new rules to slash carbon emissions by 75% mean they could be forced to ditch wood and coal-fired ovens
Pizzerias could install a ‘scrubbers’ device to filter smoke but this is $20,000
This is utter bs. It won’t make a difference to climate change.
