July 1st marks the start of Plastic Free July! Because... Microplastics are everywhere—but don't panic. You can't eliminate them, but you can reduce your exposure. This week's challenge: 🥤 Skip plastic water bottles ☕ Bring a reusable cup 🛍️ Carry a reusable bag 🍴 Say no to plastic cutlery

NYC's climate law aims to reduce pollution from buildings, which account for 70% of local emissions. "Those positives evaporate when developers and building owners choose to buy RECs instead of investing in their properties," says advocate @petesikora.bsky.social. citylimits.org/potential-lo...

Europe is sweltering, and soon NYC will be too. Our children need all of us to show up, organize and fight for everything we can save on this🌏. Save the date and join us in Astoria Park on July 11 for an all ages summer social/ picnic/ splashpad community gathering. The way forward is together.

"Not one electron from the existing grid should be used to power data centers" says Blair Horner of @nypirg.bsky.social. Tell Governor Hochul that you and your electrons want a data center moratorium! takeaction.io/eany/gov-hoc...

For more, here's our investigation with @drilledmedia.bsky.social:

Great thread by @propublica.org on why carbon capture and storage (CCS) is not a viable climate solution.

Good news! A major U.S. federal court just rejected the EPA’s attempt to roll back Biden-era limits on deadly soot pollution. This is a vital win in the midst of the Trump administration’s relentless attacks on clean air.

In the middle of Europe's terrible heat wave, France's nuclear output "was reduced by 4.1 gigawatts on Wednesday as high temperatures reduced access to cooling water." www.cnbc.com/2026/06/24/f...

Lunchtime is a great time to show Kathy Hochul you don't want her $24B nuclear boondoggle! After gutting NY's climate law and undermining clean energy, she wants to spend tax $$ on a massive nuclear buildup. Really? Yep, really. 12 pm on Tuesday 6/30, 919 Third Ave. 350brooklyn.org/join-6-30-ac...

"As the cost of clean energy keeps plummeting, it gets more and more obvious how much money we waste, and how much financial risk we incur, by staying with fossil fuel."

NY won a 1-year moratorium on data centers. We need to make sure Hochul signs it!

The NYS Legislature passed what could become a first-in-the-nation data center moratorium. It is a testament to the power of organizers, residents, environmental justice advocates, and frontline communities across NY, whose advocacy has helped secure this win. www.nyrenews.org/news/ny-rene...

While Hochul moves to weaken NY’s climate law (518-474-8390), we brought 100+ people together with Bill McKibben, Hana Johnson, Jonathon Coen & Graham Van Korff to talk solar—from the SUNNY Act to ASAP.

Amy Goodman & Nermeen Shaikh of Democracy Now! interview Bill McKibben: "...it is ludicrous to be exposed any more than you have to to the completely volatile and undependable supply of fossil fuel, when, you know, the sun rises pretty much every morning."

From @foodandwater.bsky.social: "We need to hit pause on these facilities until we have a thorough regulatory framework that protects ratepayers and our health, communities, and environment. Here are six reasons we need a moratorium on data centers in New York and one way to take action."
