CLIMATE ACT TOWN HALL
When the Climate Leadership and Community Protection Act (CLCPA - aka The Climate Act) passed in 2019, few New Yorkers even knew what happened. Albany legislators set extreme, unrealistic targets for carbon reductions without specifying how those goals would be accomplished. That would be left to an appointed Climate Action Council (CAC). In December 2022, the CAC submitted its final plan to the Governor and legislature for implementation.
Plans to force people to convert to electric homes, water heaters, cars, stoves and buildings or face substantial surcharges and carbon taxes will backfire.
We can't afford tens of thousands of dollars in new costs! Nor do we want the electric grid to become even more unreliable, or see electric rates soar. The details of CLCPA/Climate Act raise huge concerns, and you owe it to yourself to learn more, and make your voice heard!
SPEAKERS
Dr. James E. Hanley, Fellow, The Empire Center
Sara Traberman, Sensible Solar of Rural New York
Bobbie Anne Cox, Esq., Uniting NYS
