What the New York's draft scoping plan means for all
Event Details
About this event
When New York’s draft scoping plan, written by the Climate Action Council, is finalized later this year, it will impact every New Yorker: our energy choices, the industries we work in, the communities we live in, the investments we make in affordable energy, and the ways we can protect ourselves and our neighborhoods against climate change.
Right now, that plan is still just a draft, and until June 10, the public has a chance to weigh in on it. How will climate action affect you, and how can you make your voice heard?
In this conversation, moderated by River climate reporter Lissa Harris, we talk with people who have been following the state’s climate planning process closely about what the scoping plan means for all New Yorkers—and what action you can take.
Panelists Include:
Jen Metzger, PhD, served in the N.Y. State Senate in 2019-2020, and currently advises on climate and energy policy with the non-profit organization New Yorkers for Clean Power. Prior to her election to the State Senate, she served for over a decade in local government in the Town of Rosendale, and co-founded and directed Citizens for Local Power.
Raya Salter, Esq., is a member of the New York State Climate Action Council, founder of the newly launched Energy Justice Law and Policy Center, and a former policy organizer with NY Renews.
Rev. Dr. Gregory Simpson is the pastor of Nauraushaun Presbyterian Church in Pearl River and cofounder of the Hudson Valley Environmental Justice Coalition. A leader in local environmental and climate justice issues, Rev. Simpson is also a STEM educator and consultant with a doctorate in organic chemistry. Among other volunteer work, he serves on the boards of Riverkeeper, the Hudson River Sloop Clearwater, and Ulster County Community College.

Event Details
With the implementation of the Climate Leadership and Community Protection Act (Climate Act), New York State is undertaking the most ambitious effort in the U.S. to meet the challenge of climate change. New York’s Climate Act recognizes that while climate change affects all of us, it doesn’t affect all communities equally. The Climate Act charged the Climate Justice Working Group (CJWG) with the development of criteria to identify disadvantaged communities to ensure that frontline and otherwise underserved communities benefit from the state’s historic transition to cleaner, greener sources of energy, reduced pollution and cleaner air, and economic opportunities.
On December 13, 2021, the CJWG voted to approve draft disadvantaged communities criteria for public comment.. Detail on the draft DAC criteria, including an interactive map and schedule for public hearings, can be found online on the Climate Act webpage. The public comment period is currently open and ends on July 7, 2022. Comments can be provided at scheduled public hearings, via email, and via U.S. mail; details are available on the Climate Act webpage.
In partnership with the Long Island Progressive Coalition, the NYS Department of Environmental Conservation and NYS Energy Research and Development Authority are hosting an education session to provide an overview of the draft Disadvantaged Communities (DAC) criteria, as developed by the CJWG on Monday, May 16 from 6pm -7pm. This informational session will allow community members to gain a greater understanding of the draft criteria and the process the CJWG took in developing it. Please note that comments or other input on the draft criteria cannot be taken at this session and should be submitted as public comments.
Participants can attend the May 16 informational session via this link:

Event Details
While collective action is crucial to solving the climate crisis, many of us would also like to reduce our own reliance on fossil fuels. Measuring your home’s energy efficiency is a great first step toward lowering energy consumption. But energy audits can be costly, and it’s not easy to find a qualified auditor. Now there’s a solution: New York State is teaming up with NEEP (Northeast Energy Efficiency Partnerships) to offer a free, remote energy auditing service to homeowners. NEEP’s app collects data from your home and uses it to produce an energy model showing how much you might save from different energy upgrades. At this event, NEEP experts will explain how the system works and get you started on your own audit.
This presentation will take place online via Zoom. Please RSVP at least an hour in advance to receive the Zoom link prior to the event. It will also be livestreamed on YouTube here.
This program will be recorded and streamed on YouTube. All participants who register and join this program will be recorded. Your image will be seen if you leave your camera on, if you ask a question your voice will be heard, and your name may be visible.

Event Details
The signs of climate change are all around us; rising sea levels, more frequent and severe storms, heatwaves, and droughts are becoming the norm both globally, and right here in the Hudson Valley. Scientists warn that we must take significant action this decade to save ourselves from the most serious consequences of a warming earth. Learn what the HRMM is doing to educate the public about the causes, consequences, and actions that we can take to meet this challenge with its new exhibit, Warming Signs: Climate Change in the Hudson Valley. Participants will have the opportunity to tour both the new indoor and outdoor exhibits which are scheduled to open in June.

Event Details
On Saturday, May 28th from 3PM to 5PM, the Hudson River Maritime Museum will be hosting an informal talk entitled ‘A Conversation with Bill McKibben’ in The Barn at the Museum’s campus. In this open discussion, Bill will discuss his experience as a climate change activist, his books, and how ordinary people, especially of his generation, can get involved to make a difference in their communities.
What have we learned from the decades-long struggle to address the climate crisis? How are the impacts of climate change and the over-use of natural resources linked to social justice? How do we re-engage activism from people who are in their 60s and remind them of their American Dream and to fight for our common future?
Bill McKibben is one of our nation’s most influential environmental activists. He founded the global grassroots climate campaign 350.org, serves as the Schumann Distinguished Scholar in Environmental Studies at Middlebury College, has won the Gandhi Peace Prize, was awarded the Right Livelihood Award in the Swedish Parliament – sometimes called the alternative Nobel – and was the recipient of the annual Puffin/Nation Prize for Creative Citizenship.
Bill is a prolific writer and has penned over 20 books–including The End of Nature (1989) regarded as the first book for a general audience about global warming. His new book, The Flag, the Cross, and the Station Wagon: A Graying American Looks Back at His Suburban Boyhood and Wonders What the Hell Happened, is a call-to-arms. He digs deep into our history and the environmental crisis and takes an honest look at how our country may have failed to realize the mythic American Dream of the 1950’s for many of its citizens.
This event is free to the public, but attendees are encouraged to make reservations as seating will be limited. Masks are encouraged for this in-person event.
Located on the historic Rondout waterfront, the Hudson River Maritime Museum was established in 1979 and is dedicated to the preservation and interpretation of the maritime history of the Hudson River, its tributaries, and related industries.

Event Details
As commercial and educational institutions look for electrification strategies to reduce their carbon footprint, the kitchen is the final frontier. Abandoning natural gas appliances can result in reduced energy bills, healthier work conditions, enhanced safety, and increased performance and throughput. But the lure of the gas flame endures.
This panel session will debunk perceived barriers to kitchen electrification, including energy use, equipment availability and effectiveness, menu concerns, and staff happiness. Learn from a chef, an architect, and an engineer how to rewire commercial and institutional facilities by installing healthier, energy efficient, all-electric kitchens.

Event Details
Peaker power plants are some of the dirtiest and most expensive sources of electricity on the grid. While many peakers only operate during a small fraction of the year, emissions from these mostly gas and oil power plants can have an outsized impact on the health of surrounding communities, releasing dangerously high levels of nitrogen oxides (NOx) and other pollutants on days when air quality is often at its worst.
Clean Energy Group’s Peaker Plant Mapping Tool provides basic information about the more than 1,000 peaker plants in operation across the United States and helps users visualize the disproportionate impact of peaker plants on people of color, who are more likely to live near the dirtiest peaker plants, and lower-income communities, where two-thirds of peaker plants are located.
This Clean Energy Group webinar will introduce the Peaker Plant Mapping Tool and provide an overview of how it can be used to explore the economic and racial disparities of peaker plants. UPROSE, a community-based organization fighting peaker plants impacting the Sunset Park neighborhood of New York City, and the Berkshire Environmental Action Team, who has been leading opposition efforts against multiple peakers in Western Massachusetts, will also present on the impact of peakers on their communities and the work they are doing to retire and replace fossil peakers with renewables and energy storage.
Panelists:
– Seth Mullendore, President and Executive Director, Clean Energy Group
– Summer Sandoval, Energy Democracy Coordinator, UPROSE
– Rosemary Wessel, No Fracked Gas in Mass Program Director, Berkshire Environmental Action Team
