the ban on AC in new-build homes

So someone building a new home isn't allowed to even install an AC, but businesses are free to use it as wastefully as humanly possible?

Let's not go to London. 'Tis a silly place.

This is a weird article, London and New York are different here. London doesn't have any where near the amount of AC in shops as New York, and the shops that do probably have automatic doors anyway. It's comparing apples to oranges, and it's just a hit piece on the mayor.
