Undoing New York's Climate Act, one piece at a time.

"Why has Hochul backed away from taking action on climate change even as she has made grand pronouncements about the dire stakes 'if we sacrifice mother nature on the altar of profit'?"

The answer seems to be fossil fuel 💲💲💲

Hey, NY, It's been more than 40 years. Time for an update!

thirdactupstateny.bsky.social Third Act Upstate New York @thirdactupstateny.bsky.social · 1d
A coalition of environmentalists, charities, & civic groups has found most NY retailers have not posted the required Bottle Bill “Bill of Rights."

The coalition has asked Gov. Hochul to ensure compliance with the law & to prioritize modernization of the Bottle Bill in the next legislative session.
Groups to Gov. Hochul: Make Bottle Bill more convenient
We all are familiar with New York’s Bottle Bill. That’s the law that requires a nickel deposit on some beverage containers – soda, beer, and water. It’s been on the books for over 40 years.

Our IMV Climate Crisis Working Group is really not happy about this failure by Gov. Hochul.
thirdactupstateny.bsky.social Third Act Upstate New York @thirdactupstateny.bsky.social · 10d
Hochul again refuses to protect the people & environment of NYS.

"The reaction from environmental groups was blistering. @senecalakeguardian.bsky.social accused Gov. Kathy Hochul of 'abandoning the Finger Lakes,' weakening the state’s climate law, and siding with a 'fossil-fueled Bitcoin mine.'"

♻️ ⭐️ The Bottle Bill has been New York's most effective recycling system since 1982, and an update to the bill is long overdue!
Help us get the Bigger Better Bottle passed in 2026 for the sake of our people and our planet 🌎 💪

What is the NY bottle bill? It places a 5-cent deposit on some beverage containers. It is the state's most effective recycling system, reducing litter by70% The deposit has not changed since the bill was enacted in 1982. It's time for a dime!

Vance doesn’t “want us to grow up in a country where a kid telling a stupid joke …is cause to ruin their lives.” But he’s fine with a country where showing up for an immigration hearing, school band, school pickup, or peaceful protest is cause to ruin many, many lives.
jessicacalarco.com Jess Calarco @jessicacalarco.com · Oct 17
It's telling that Vance's first instinct following the Politico leak was to tell his sons to be wary of what they write in group chats--to assume “some scumbag is going to leak it in an effort to try to cause you harm.”

His message here is basically--be racist; just don't get caught.
Vance said he planned to warn his children—“especially my boys”—to be cautious about what they share in group chats or online, advising them to assume “some scumbag is going to leak it in an effort to try to cause you harm or cause your family harm.”
