New York's teachers @nysut.bsky.social are right: our kids need upgraded schools — and the publicly-owned renewable energy to power them

Green schools can be the first step to a future we'll be proud to pass to the next generation

Kathy Hochul could bring down bills and protect our future by building 15 gigawatts of public renewables.

Instead, she's raising bills to build Trump's fracked gas pipeline and a crypto mine.

Is this why?

Our fossil-fueled grid is heading for blackouts as soon as NEXT YEAR. This is why we can’t wait to build a full 15 gigawatts of public renewable energy. ⚡️

We can’t trust private companies to invest in the public good. We need public power.

While @governor.ny.gov ties us to toxic gas plants and destructive pipelines, the rest of world builds clean, affordable energy at record rates. Hochul and Trump aren’t just walking us backwards, they’re sprinting.

Are we going to keep falling behind, or #BuildPublicRenewables?

Time and time again, Hochul proves she’s hostile to publicly demanded renewables.

Time to show her we don’t need her
In case it wasn't clear, @governor.ny.gov isn't working for you, she's working for big oil billionaires.

Higher bills, polluted air, and a dying planet for you; another yacht for them. Fight back: ecosocialists.nyc/take-action

The governor is again solely concerned with lining her and her cronies pockets. Needs to be out of office yesterday.
I’m genuinely shocked Hochul shot down the Clean Path transmission project application by NYPA.

This cuts off new renewable energy into NYC. It will lead to higher utility bills and more pollution downstate, plus no jobs. It’s devastating.

She is in bed with gas interests. 🧵

The Energy Department is doing climate denial. The EPA is pro-pollution. Trump wants to let us burn.

And what’s @governor.ny.gov doing? Nothing.

We make our own future. It’s up to us to build a movement, #BuildPublicRenewables & build a #GreenNewYork. ecosocialists.nyc/join-us

Because of our movement, the New York Power Authority announced today it's MORE THAN DOUBLING their public renewables plan. And we're just getting started. ✊

A great win, and only the beginning, as we continue to fight for public renewables and a better future for NY ⚡️

While we face a heat index of 105+ degrees, NYC's air is also DANGEROUS to breathe.

Stay hydrated, watch out for signs of heat stroke (nausea, flushed skin, headache/confusion), and check on your neighbors, especially the elderly & kids. Find a cooling center: maps.nyc.gov/cooling-cent...

Kathy Hochul: “we have to slow down on building renewable energy because… something something affordability”

also @governor.ny.gov:
New York is slashing the Empower+ program, an energy affordability program that was designed to help low- and moderate-income households save through energy efficiency upgrades.
New York to Scale Back Key Energy Affordability Program
Empower+ helps thousands of New Yorkers afford energy efficiency upgrades. The state is planning to slash funding by nearly two-thirds in two years.

Be safe and stay cool in the extreme heat, and fight against fossil fuels being put ahead of our future!
Didn’t get enough extreme weather with 2 inches of rain in an hour? How about another heatwave? 🥵

Flooding and extreme heat can’t be the new normal. But this is what our future looks like when @governor.ny.gov ignores NY’s climate laws. Help fight back. ecosocialists.nyc/join-us

After a senseless delay, New York is back to building the renewable energy we need. But if Trump thinks he’s gonna build a new pipeline in exchange, he doesn’t know New Yorkers.

After 24 years, Williamsburg's gas powered peaker plant is getting ready to call it quits 🎉👋

We need gas phased out of our city like…yesterday. Fossil fuel dependence means dangerous situations like this and unhealthy levels of pollution. 🤢
