Food & Water Watch New York

Yesterday, @foodandwater hit the streets of Manhattan, collecting petitions to @CMShaunAbreu urging him to defend #LocalLaw97 and fight for lower bills, good jobs, and clean air by co-sponsoring Intro 1180 to close a loophole created by Mayor Adams.

I know how vital clean water, natural resources, and community health are to our way of life. These pipelines threaten it all. Governor Hochul and the DEC must protect NY’s water and climate, and deny these polluting pipelines.

Great piece from our own @LShindell urging @Hochul to slam the door shut on Trump's plan to revive toxic fracked gas pipelines running through New York. nydailynews.com/2025/07/20/gov…

Tell @GovKathyHochul: Don't frack up New York! Urge Hochul to stop Donald Trump from forcing fracked gas pipelines through New York. These projects would threaten our water, undermine our climate law, and promote fracking. Please call TODAY: 866-872-5958. #OffFossilFuels

Awesome to see the climate movement scrambling to be eveywhere @GovKathyHochul goes on very short notice to demand she reject fracked gas pipelines! From Brooklyn this morning where we spoke to her (at her?) in person.

Victory Party! Celebrate passing a bill to end a massive subsidy promoting fracked gas! You showed up. You organized. You fought for clean energy and lower bills, and we won! Come celebrate 7/22 (and join the effort pushing Hochul to sign the bill!) actionnetwork.org/events/04d7e26…

“Climate change is one of the most pressing issues facing New Yorkers, and it’s hitting working-class communities the hardest,” 👏👏👏 -@ZohranKMamdani spox Local Law 97, our “Green New Deal” law, creates good jobs, reduces pollution & cuts utility bills via energy efficiency.😎

Yesterday, @foodandwater rallied with @NYPIRG, @nychange, @NYLPI, @350brooklyn, and @FFF_NYC_ to urge @KeithPowersNYC to defend #LocalLaw97 and co-sponsor Intro 1180. #OffFossilFuels #ClimateLeadership #DefendLocalLaw97 #LowerBills #GoodJobs #CleanerAir

Donald Trump is pushing polluting pipelines onto New Yorkers. Gas pipelines put our air, water and health at risk. Take to the streets with us on August 9 to tell @GovKathyHochul : No Trump Pipelines in NY! Join us! bit.ly/NoTrumpPipelin… #NoTrumpPipelines

🚨@GovKathyHochul started a 30 day clock with no public hearing for permitting Trump’s Williams fracked gas pipeline, a super-polluting rip-off scheme. Hochul seems to have some sort of secret deal with Trump.😡 She must stand up to Trump, not do his bidding! 🚨 Statement:

Building the movement to move #OffFossilFuels, whatever the weather!

Big tech is trying to bring back nuclear. It's still an incredibly stupid idea. foodandwaterwatch.org/2025/06/26/big…

New York's climate movement grows every day. @GovKathyHochul must choose whether to stand w/New Yorkers or Trump and the oil and gas companies. theexaminernews.com/regional-oppos…

Very strong letter from our own @EricWeltman in today's @NYDailyNews criticizing Assembly and Speaker Heastie for failing to pass bill to cut plastic waste. We can't keep caving to the chemical industry!

Strong letter in today's @NYDailyNews from @foodandwater's @EricWeltman criticizing Assembly Speaker Carl Heastie for bowing to the chemical industry and refusing to allow a vote on a bill to cut plastic packaging waste. #BeyondPlastics #OffFossilFuels @mwhyland

Thrilled this bill passed! Utility companies shouldn’t have a blank check to expand polluting gas pipelines & force NYers to pay for it. This isn’t everything we hoped for, but it's a step toward a healthier & more affordable NY. TY to @LizKrueger & the outstanding advocates.

.@RenewablHeatNow is in Albany today calling for the @NYSA_Majority to say YES to cleaner heat and lower bills. Last week, the Senate passed bills to end gas expansion subsidies and give New Yorkers the chance to choose cleaner alternatives. All eyes are on the Assembly! #NYHEAT
