New Yorkers and tourists were finally about to get cleaner air, safer streets, and improved public transportation. But just before the plan was about to go into effect in late June, Gov. Kathy Hochul announced an “indefinite pause.” So we sued! ejus.tc/46EIeJz

TIMBER's public comments about Troy's ongoing constitutionality concerns regarding lead service line replacement bonding are available here: timbercorp.org/positions/pc-l…

We're getting closer to a bond resolution, folks. Don't let up now. Let Mayor Mantello, Russ Reeves, and the City Council know that they need to get their act together and pass a bond resolution so we can get the lead out. bit.ly/moveitcarm

New Yorkers need climate action, not climate rollbacks, in the face of the worsening crisis. Governor Kathy Hochul must: 1️⃣sign the climate change superfund act 2️⃣recommit to #NYHEAT for the 2025 session 3️⃣end the delay on congestion pricing

I love that we've taken computers - a machine designed exclusively to do math - and taken away the ability to solve gradeschool math problems and all it cost us was the amazon rainforest

My colleague on the congestion pricing delay: "The Governor's decision is totally lawless." It's not too late for the Governor to move forward on congestion pricing to ensure NYers benefit from reduced air pollution and congestion, and long overdue public transit investments.

NYers are getting hammered with poor air quality, especially as the climate crisis worsens. Governor Kathy Hochul’s congestion pricing rollback makes it worse. nyc.streetsblog.org/2024/06/30/all…

"No hay razón para que la gobernadora Hochul demore la promulgación de la ley del Superfondo de Cambio Climático. Los neoyorquinos están sufriendo la crisis climática en este momento." - Liz Moran eltiempolatino.com/2024/08/13/cam…

As expected, Troy again has the highest 90th percentile lead ppb of any city in New York. This administration has said a lot about risk in the context of bonding - as if it is not also risky to condemn children to drinking the most lead-contaminated water in the state.

Been seeing a lot of people sporting Buc-ee’s merch here in the capital region of New York State lately

Crazy story-- Troy has worse lead contanimation in its water than Flint ever did, by double digits. timbercorp.org/positions/23aw…

Things on my calendar that would sound funny to someone not in enviro policy work: "Horseshoe Crab Chat"

States are increasingly looking to make polluters pay for the extreme costs of climate change. NY should be next, and all we need is for Governor Kathy Hochul to sign the Climate Change Superfund Act the legislature passed earlier this year. Get it done! stateline.org/2024/08/26/fac…

Wrote “standard fair” by accident instead of “standard fare” in an email. Time to jump off a bridge

This cat is blissfully unaware of *insert your choice of ills society faces*

Someone let me know when I can get the cat one and the fish one on eBay pls

They should make a high speed rail line between my house and my friends’ houses

.Renewable Heat Now heads to the State Energy Planning Board meeting to make sure that there are no roll-backs of NY's Climate Action Plan.

“Concepts of a plan”

"Hochul has said London only charged £5 when it launched its own congestion pricing tolls in 2003. But converted into dollars and adjusted for inflation, that price comes out to just over $14 in 2024 dollars."
