It’s not news to anyone that New Yorkers have multiple crises on their hands: fossil fueled extreme weather and pollution, unaffordable and substandard housing, an endangered democracy, and income inequality higher than any other state.
Can you join us in Albany January 22nd for a statewide Fund Climate mobilization and lobby day, to demand action on the interconnected climate, affordability, and housing crises?
NY Renews’ Fund Climate Campaign is about facing the crises of our time head on, putting money behind community-led climate justice solutions, increasing energy affordability, and repairing dangerous housing conditions. By creating a Community Directed Grant program, our investment plan would create opportunities for local organizations, unions, and municipal governments to develop clean energy projects and initiatives for their communities.
Our Fund Climate Spending Plan also includes a flagship, statewide program that directly addresses dangerous substandard housing conditions that cause health and safety issues, such as indoor air pollution, and exposure to toxic materials. By repairing the physical condition of homes and small businesses, we can improve living conditions and prepare buildings for climate critical energy efficiency and building electrification improvements. Join us January 22nd and stand united with hundreds of New Yorkers for climate justice.
