Pledge to Act in 2025
Join our campaign to tell the Governor: Hurry Up Hochul - Protect Kids Not Polluters!
New York’s economy is bigger than that of the majority of countries. What happens in New York matters for the whole planet, and of course for New Yorkers. But New York’s Governor Kathy Hochul is failing our families and kids.
Having signed the Climate Change Superfund Act, Governor Hochul seems to think she can take a break from climate action. Sadly the huge amount of carbon emissions that New York is still pumping out tells another story. NY state is behind on meeting its own goals for emission reductions and Hochul is backtracking on her commitments to fulfill the obligations in New York’s landmark climate law, the Climate Leadership and Community Protection Act.
We need Governor Hochul to support important legislation like NY HEAT this session and rapidly implement the promised cap-and-invest program to fund the decarbonization of our state.
The climate emergency is here and we’re running out of time. As parents, we owe it to our kids to show up and tell Gov. Hochul that climate delay = climate denial, and she needs to protect families, not corporate polluters!
