Tell the Public Service Commission: New Yorkers demand renewables not more fracked gas!
After the Williams NESE pipeline was rejected by New York State, National Grid is proposing other gas infrastructure options to serve customers in its downstate service territory. Join us to tell the Public Service Commission to reject gas pipelines and embrace the "no-infrastructure" alternative of energy efficiency, demand response, and heat pumps.

We can heat our homes without warming the planet
New Yorkers can reduce the demand for fossil fuels and make home heating more affordable, by changing the way our homes are heated and putting in the right policies.
Governor Cuomo has just announced a rebate program for geothermal heat pumps and a policy framework to reduce the use of home heating oil, propane, and gas in our homes.
Join us as we tour New York this week to raise awareness about how New York can convert from fossil fuel heating systems to efficient renewable-ready electric systems, such as cold climate heat pumps and geothermal heat pumps, which are widely available technologies.
