Going green at Barcade in Brooklyn | NBC New York

When you think of green businesses, bars do not always come first in our minds. But one Williamsburg, Brooklyn bar is conserving energy, minimizing waste, and focused on making the planet better. News 4's Ida Siegal with the special report for Earth Day.

"Often, when someone signs up with an ESCO, the customer does not actually buy green energy but only the renewable energy credits, or RECs, generated by green energy providers. Green Mountain’s most popular program in New York offers “100% clean, renewable wind energy,” but what it actually sells is the equivalent number of RECs needed to offset the carbon footprint of your energy consumption." All it takes to say you're "green"... is hand over more green.

I discovered Barcade last summer and I gotta say, I’m happy that they have classic fighting games from Capcom as unfortunately many arcade centers have been lacking fighting games as it is my favorite genre in video games. Let’s hope Barcade continues to grow 👍👏
