Peoples Climate Movement - NY

Global temps rose 1.5°C last year, LA is STILL on fire, and we're about to enter a Trump presidency, with key agencies staffed by people who call climate change a hoax. NY must lead. spectrumlocalnews.com/nys/central-ny…

Join us on March 26th to ask the Mayoral candidates about their climate and environmental justice priorities for New York City! RSVP: actionnetwork.org/events/climate…

Hundreds of us from from Brooklyn to Buffalo are here to show a united grassroots front at The Capitol to say: ENOUGH IS ENOUGH! We have to #FundClimate AND Environmental Justice!!

“We are in it and we know this! We are paying for it and suffering from Climate Change now.” @AMKelles

Legislators @SenatorBrouk, @HarveyforNY, and @RachelMayNY are here with us because they know we have to #FundClimate now to protect our planet’s future!

“The plants and the animals don’t have a seat in this house, they need to have a seat in our hearts, in *your* hearts. We have to think of those who don’t have their own voice to protect our Earth.” —@brenamen26

OP-ED: @NYCMayor must see the bigger picture for students and climate, says Faiza Azam, our labor and climate organizer NYC must invest in #GreenHealthySchools to give students a safe & healthy learning environment and real opportunity for their futures ➡️amsterdamnews.com/news/2025/01/0…

It's no longer Giving Tuesday, but it's still a great day to support the work of NY Renews! 💪

This #GivingTuesday, give @GovKathyHochul an ultimatum: BUILD public renewable energy or NY will BURN. Less than a week left to file official public comments. Take 2 mins to demand the public renewable energy New York needs for a better, healthier future. bit.ly/nyleadtheway

New Op-ed: On the anniversary of Superstorm Sandy, we're calling on @GovKathyHochul to start congestion pricing now so we can protect New Yorkers and create the green, union jobs we all need to thrive. @betsyplum @RidersAlliance @MooreProgress @ALIGNny nydailynews.com/2024/10/28/hoc…

It's absurd that NY's most powerful business interests are calling for a rollback of our climate mandates and community investment programs—even as we suffer from one of the most extreme hurricane seasons on record, toxic air pollution, and more. nyrenews.org/news/2024/cbc-…

2025 could be the year we fund climate projects across NY to lower emissions, protect our communities from toxic pollutants, lower energy bills, and more! Join us on Oct 28th for a mass call to get the low-down on our upcoming campaign: bit.ly/nyr-next-chapt…

240+ orgs are joining together to demand @GovKathyHochul help New York households accelerate the transition to clean energy technology, which would improve air quality, lower bills, and reduce climate pollution. Read more: beepny.org #RenewableHeatNow #NYHEAT

Coverage of @ClimateNYS's new report in @NY1. Across thirteen policy areas, the verdict on @GovKathyHochul's climate track record is clear: the Hochul administration failed the people of NY in 2024. Governor, you can't continue to ignore this crisis. spectrumlocalnews.com/nys/buffalo/po…

✨New op-ed on @NYDailyNews: Ten years after the People’s Climate March, the public understands the scope of the crisis at hand. We won’t stop fighting for climate justice — now it’s time for our leaders to act. @NYRenews @MooreProgress @GreenJobsNY nydailynews.com/2024/09/29/cli…

The images of Hurricane Helene are horrific—flooded streets, homes and cars carried away by torrential rivers. The horrific costs of the climate crisis are undeniable. @GovKathyHochul, it’s time to sign the Climate Change Superfund Act!

WHOA! Activists projected these huge images across NYC last night with the message that it’s time to #MakePollutersPay for climate damages!

🚨 Today, OVER A THOUSAND young people and activists marched across the Brooklyn Bridge to tear down the Pillars of Fossil Fuels!! We demand that funders divest from fossil fuels, polluters stop poisoning our communities, and leaders finally take action on the climate crisis.

This weekend 10 years ago, I organized hundreds of scientists to march a giant chalkboard down 50 blocks of NYC for the People's Climate March. The goal was to get scientists more involved in activism. There's still so much more to do, but I'm thankful for all the progress made.

New Yorkers & their families deserve a lift! They also deserve a dedicated funding stream for mass transit to incentivize traffic reduction, improve air quality and public health. Congestion pricing is the right answer. amny.com/news/stroller-…
