Description

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?
