🚨 New video just dropped! Electeds & community leaders are calling on @govkathyhochul + nysdps to REJECT National Grid’s dirty gas plan — a climate, safety, and affordability disaster.
At the heart of it? 💀 A massive, barely used LNG facility in Greenpoint that threatens public health and violates NY’s climate law.
📣 We need clean, affordable energy — not more fossil fuel giveaways.

As National Grid- one of NYC’s monopoly utility companies- takes in record profits, NY’ers reel from a spiralling affordability crisis. Now, the company will seek to increase rates on our energy bills to pay for fossil fuel projects. That’s not just predatory, it’s unsustainable. Join us Monday May 18th for an online Energy Systems 101 training to find out how we got here and what you can do to fight back! 🔗 in bio. #climatejustice #stoplng #noratehikesfordirtyenergy
Our newest Substack post is out now! Kim Franczek writes the article "Energy is a Human Right: 15 Years of Sane Energy." ⚡️
Kim Fraczek is the director of Sane Energy, a New York-based nonprofit that focuses on moving from environmentally damaging mechanisms such as fracking to renewable energy. In her childhood, she notes how the punk rock community educated her on the value of nature and being sustainable. Throughout college, she designed for the fashion industry, but once learning about a pipeline that was being built in her community, she knew she had to take action.

New York’s climate law was designed to cut pollution, lower costs, and move us toward a cleaner, more affordable energy future.
@govkathyhochul recently proposed changes that could move us in the opposite direction by creating loopholes that keep us locked onto fossil fuels for decades to come.
Here’s what’s at stake:
• Changing how methane is measured will undermine its real world impact
• Ignoring pollution from imported gas from other states lets major emissions go unchecked
• Treating biofuels as “zero emissions” could increase pollution, not reduce it
At the same time, we know what works: Clean energy is already delivering savings for households and creating jobs across the state.
The path forward is clear, stand up for energy affordability and cleaner air. Don’t roll it back NY's Climate Law.
Your Voice Matters: Send a letter to @govkathyhochul and your representatives in the legislature today: bit.ly/defend-climate or visit the link in our bio for more ways to take action.

How many more times do we have to say that climate inaction is the most expensive option?
Our Governor is using secretive budget negotiations to gut New York's landmark Climate Law. We need to tell our legislators to stand strong against her terrible proposals!

It's International Workers' Day.
We joined forces with 65 New York labor and environmental organizations today with one clear message to the Governor and Legislature: Invest $3 billion in our clean energy future. Union jobs. Lower costs. Healthier communities.

Tag your legislator in this post!
@thesunnyact is a clear step toward #energydemocracy by giving renters and homeowners real access to clean power, lower bills, and climate solutions beyond utility control.
The Assembly should pass it without delay. @khaleelanderson@didibarrett106@cheastie let’s do something wonderful together!
20+ orgs. Hundreds of thousands of New Yorkers. One line:
Implement the law.
No delays. No dilution. No deals for fossil fuels.
@govkathyhochul do your job.

Big news! #SUNNY just passed the NY State Senate **unanimously!**
SUNNY would make affordable, plug-in solar accessible to millions of New Yorkers, helping to lower bills and cut pollution.
Next stop, the Assembly! We'll be in Albany 4/29 to support SUNNY and defend our state climate law-- head to the link in bio to join us!
