Unbelievable betrayal of New Yorkers as @governor.ny.gov caves to Trump's drill baby drill agenda in approving the NESE fracked gas pipeline.

I hope she's ready for a lot of rage because that is what's coming.

It's time for New York's climate movement to get serious about fracked gas pipelines. That's why we're asking folks to pledge not to vote for @governor.ny.gov in the Dem primary if she approves the Williams NESE fracked gas pipeline.

Take the pledge!

Four years ago today @governor.ny.gov killed two massive proposed fracked gas power plants (Danskammer and Astoria) just after she took office.

Hard not to think about how far she's fallen on climate since then, seeking to delay just about any action to move off fossil fuels.

When will @governor.ny.gov wake up and realize no one wants the pipelines Trump is trying to bully NY into approving?

Ok but they aren’t “critics” within the scientific community. They are the actual oil industry and the think tanks that work on their behalf. And “linking” refers to source and impact attribution science which quantifies human influence on extreme weather events. 1/4
