group of 80 people assembled in Syracuse with pro renewable energy, anti nuclear energy banners and signs
While the Governor held a secretive nuclear industry summit inside, we joined with Haudenosaunee Nations, climate organizations, and community members to highlight the costly risks of her nuclear energy plan, and call for a renewable future.
We need major changes to NY’s State Energy Plan:
No more nuclear energy.
No more public dollars for private data centers.
No more sacrificing Indigenous lands for corporate profits.

NY Renews responds to the 2025/2026 NY state budget: $1B for climate is a good start. But Cap and Invest could bring in up to 12x that *annually* for lower energy bills, cleaner air, and tens of thousands of good jobs.

It’s terrifying to be in Elon Musk’s crosshairs. I’ve spent the last 48 hours dealing with the aftermath of these tweets. Everything he has said about me and Troublemakers is an outright lie.
The right to protest is at the heart of American democracy. Join a #TeslaTakedown protest. ✊❤️

☎️ TIME TO CALL FOR OUR FUTURE ☎️
The demand to build 15 gigawatts of public renewables has been joined by unions, health orgs, legislators, and thousands of New Yorkers. But still Gov. Hochul and her CEO Justin Driscoll are silent.
It's time they hear us, loud and clear: bit.ly/callforourfuture
In his final months in office, President Biden has crucial opportunities to secure his climate legacy and prevent Trump from eroding hard-won climate progress. www.oilchange.org/blogs/bidens...
Here’s what we need to see from him over the next 60 days:
“There aren’t many policy tools that Trump can’t undo, and this is one of the few,” Laurie van der Burg of @oilchange.bsky.social on historic OECD deal that would drastically limit $$ for foreign oil & gas projects.
