Your Voice Matters: Help Make the Clean Air (& Climate!) Initiative Happen

In this virtual teach-in we address how the Clean Air Initiative can ensure the CLCPA’s environmental justice and greenhouse gas reduction goals are backed by enforceable regulations with mandatory emission limits on New York’s top-emitting sectors, buildings and transportation. We walk you through how to use New York’s official public comment tool to weigh in on the recently proposed Mandatory Greenhouse Gas Reporting Rule, which requires corporate polluters to tell us what they are dumping into our air (really important as EPA has signaled that it will end this requirement at the federal level) Speakers: Julie Tighe, President NYLCV & NYLCVEF Eric Walker, Energy Justice Senior Policy Manager, WE ACT for Environmental Justice Moderated by Betta Broad, Campaign Director, New Yorkers for Clean Power & Association for Energy Affordability We dive into: The latest with NY’s cap-and-invest program, now called the Clean Air Initiative and why it’s our best path to regulate and phase out emissions from buildings and transportation. The health and economic benefits of cap-and-invest + the $1 billion Sustainable Future Fund How to show up for upcoming public hearings, submit comments, and help push for the reporting rule that would mandate fossil fuel providers to report their GHG impacts, and call for the full release of regulations to actually cap GHG and copollutant emissions.

Targeted Electrification in New York

New Yorkers are paying the price for outdated gas infrastructure. But there’s a better way. In this teach-in we dig into a new report from Switchbox that compares the cost of replacing leak-prone gas pipelines to the cost of fully electrifying the buildings those pipes serve. The findings? Targeted electrification can save ratepayers billions—even when accounting for full electrification costs. We explored the report’s insights and how the NY HEAT Act can make these smarter investments possible. Speakers: Jessica Azulay – Executive Director, Alliance for a Green Economy (AGREE) Juan-Pablo Velez – Executive Director, Switchbox
