Right to Zero New York

@Earthjustice campaign to protect every New Yorker's right to clean air, clean energy and healthy homes by advancing #ZeroEmissions.

[Right to Zero New York @RightToZeroNY]

The effects of the global reliance on fossil fuels are spreading through price spikes and higher energy bills. As world leaders are shifting towards energy independence by speeding up clean energy, @GovKathyHochul wants to double-down on fossil fuels. Status quo is too high risk!

[NYPIRG @NYPIRG]

Fossil fuel interests are spending millions to weaken New York’s climate law.

New Yorkers are left paying the price.

NYPIRG’s latest video lays it out clearly.

Cleaner air is coming to the Bronx!

We've used congestion pricing funds to replace 20 diesel powered food refrigeration units at Hunts Point Market with clean energy alternatives.

This small change is the equivalent of removing 6,600 truck trips from the Cross Bronx Expressway.

[Right to Zero New York @RightToZeroNY]

Thanks to #CongestionPricing funds, new equipment in the South Bronx will cut pollution equal to emissions of 6,000 trucks/day.
Neighborhoods w/ the country's highest asthma rates & across the state deserve policies that address air quality issues paired with smart solutions.

[Jose Martinez @JMartinezNYC]

How tough is it to breathe when you're 68, have a respiratory disease and live in Hunts Point?

Oil over $100/barrel. Record oil company profits. Soaring energy insecurity. Rampant wealth inequality. Brink of irreversible climate catastrophe.

France: fast-track electrification w/ fossil fuel profits.

@GovKathyHochul: roll back climate law, and refuse to tax the rich.

[ElectrifyNY @electrify_ny]

Neighborhoods like Hunts Point, near ports and distribution hubs, have some of the highest asthma rates in the nation. Our new billboard campaign is raising the alarm: warehouse growth cannot come at the cost of the air people breathe!

🛑🚚💨 Clean Deliveries Act passes the NYS Senate.

1 in 4 NYers live within ½ mile of a mega-warehouse.

This bill delivers a flexible, zero-emission roadmap that protects public health without hurting business.

Now the Assembly must act.

Rather than learn from her own evolution on congestion pricing, Hochul is trying to gut the Climate Law over her refusal to enact regulations that would effectively build on its remarkable success at scale

@NYCMayor Here for it! ⚡️⚡️

[Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani @NYCMayor]

A greener city has to be a fairer city.

We’re bringing fast, affordable EV charging to working drivers and underserved communities—starting with a new hub in Flushing, Queens.

Eight chargers. 80% charge in under 15 minutes. The first of 10 sites coming this year.

[ElectrifyNY @electrify_ny]

The South Bronx has some of the highest childhood asthma rates in the country. The #CleanDeliveriesAct will reduce pollution and improve air quality. Thank you @AMEmeritaTorres for co-sponsoring and protecting our air!

Take action: https://t.co/srb4O20xPK

[NY Renews @NYRenews]

Happening Now 🚨

Advocates and legislators gather at the @NYSDEC Albany emissions reporting hearing to urge Governor Hochul to #FundClimate and release the regulations for the state’s cap-and-invest program.

[Liz Moran @LizAGMoran]

Anyone notice the hazy skies in NY this morning? Climate change induced wildfire smoke is impacting the state. Again.

Time for @NYSA_Majority @NYSenDems to pass #NYHEAT #CleanDeliveries to clean our air and lower costs! https://t.co/2qWlcEKQBf

[Liz Moran @LizAGMoran]

New report f/@NYCComptroller lays out the case for why the @NYSA_Majority needs to pass #NYHEAT. It's the only bill before them that gets at the root cause of these rate hikes: the gas mandate.

Changing this law is critical to curbing future rate hikes. The time is NOW.

[Right to Zero New York @RightToZeroNY]

@NYSA_Majority Full report here: https://t.co/PapOiIC3c3

[Right to Zero New York @RightToZeroNY]

.@NYSA_Majority needs to pass #NYHEATAct, here's why:
--NYC health dept data states, est 580 New
Yorkers died prematurely due to extreme heat every year, 2013 & 2022.
--3.5 mill New Yorkers (42%) have fallen behind on utility bills in last 5 years.

#WorldAsthmaDay calls us to take action towards clean air as many New York children and adults suffer from polluted air.
Will @GovKathyHochul take a stand against corporate polluters?
#AdvancedCleanTrucks rule is a policy solution already in the books, no backtracking now!

[Assemblymember Grace Lee 李榮恩 @AMGraceLee]

Toured @NYCHA Woodside Houses with @zohrankmamdani and @votejgr to view their new electric heat pumps. These pumps provide heating, cooling and move NYCHA developments off their reliance on fossil fuels while cutting costs and providing better temperature control for residents.
