Empire State of Carbon

Turning up the NY HEAT! (ft. Jessica Azulay from AGREE)


Listen Later

We go deep on the NY HEAT Act, the key policy for tackling NY's biggest source of climate pollution: burning fossil fuels in buildings.


Beloved New York climate leader Jessica Azulay from advocacy group Alliance for a Green Energy Economy (AGREE) joins John and Juan-Pablo to break down the policy and politics of NY HEAT:

- How does the NY HEAT act stops the growth of the state's gas grid and starts the transition towards electric heat pumps, all while saving people money?

- How did the Renewable Heat Now coalition make NY HEAT the top climate bill in the state?

- Why it didn't pass, and what political obstacles does the movement need to overcome to pass it next session?
