RALLY TO NATIONAL GRID: STOP OPPOSING CLIMATE PROGRESS: National Grid’s New York headquarters is the gathering point today, as climate and consumer advocates, tired of what they call National Grid’s climate misinformation campaign, will join forces for a rally and press conference. The group, expected to include local and state elected officials, NYC community members representing the health and clean energy sectors, including Assemblymember Emily Gallagher (D-50th District) and residents concerned about their health and future, will call on National Grid to stop opposing progress on climate action, to stop blocking the passage of building decarbonization legislation, and to halt opposition of the Climate Action Council’s Draft Scoping Plan.
Three key pieces of legislation are being considered by the State Legislature this year to address greenhouse gasses, pollution, and costs of burning fossil fuels in buildings.
