Earlier this summer, Danskammer Energy withdrew its application to build a new fracked gas plant on the shore of the Hudson River, in Newburgh, NY. This victory was the result of a multi-year campaign with thousands of supporters, including many organizations, elected officials, and businesses, plus many dedicated volunteers. As we close the chapter on Danskammer and transition to Beyond Danskammer, we’ll be showcasing other campaigns being led by coalition member organizations. Please join us Wednesday, September 18th at 7pm, to learn about a variety of issues, including:

• History of Danskammer Point and the potential land rights claim for Indigenous peoples (Overlook Mountain Center)

• PFAs in Newburgh’s water supply (Newburgh Clean Water Project)

• PCBs in the Hudson (Scenic Hudson)

• Climate Superfund Site Bill (Nypirg)

• Iroquois fracked gas pipeline expansion (Food & Water Watch)

• NY HEAT Act (Alliance for a Green Economy)

• Utility Justice (Communities for Local Power)

• CO2 fracking in the Southern Tier & the push to ban it (Frack Action)

• Packaging Reduction and Recycling Infrastructure Act (Beyond Plastics on behalf of UAct)

• Ulster Co 70% by 2030 (Ulster County Legislator Manna Jo Greene)

We look forward to sharing an evening with you, to ally-build and learn about ways you can impact NY’s energy and environment landscape!
