Join us for our October 2025 Group Meeting! It's FREE and open to public. WHAT: Broome County recycling: what, how, and where it goes Presentation by Allison McGovern, Materials Recovery Manager for Broome County WHEN: Tuesday 10/21/2025 7:00pm Vestal Public Library us02web.zoom.us/j/3644665286...

After the disappointing news that the Public Service Commission approved National Grid’s plan which includes a pipeline; the PSC could decide to do the right thing and approve the development of thermal energy networks to move us toward a sane energy system in New York State.

A transition to 100% Wind-Water-Solar across all energy sectors in the U.S. requires only 35% of the land used for energy by fossil fuels and biofuels today. It is current energy that is hogging land. Renewables reduce land use.

Thank you organizers, speakers and all who showed up in support for Sun Day (9/21) in Geneva, to ask Gov. Hochul to follow our NY State Climate Law, the Climate Leadership and Community Protection Act (CLCPA)!

New York's upcoming State Energy Plan may turn back the clock on our climate progress. But our voices could prevent a dangerous backslide. Remember, clean air isn't a dream -- it's a decision. Tell Governor Hochul: We need a strong State Energy Plan now!

#GovKathyHochul needs to follow NY State's own climate law, the CLCPA and direct her State's officials and agencies to follow section 7 of the CLCPA and prioritize climate in decision-making.

'A fired-up crowd gathered in the Finger Lakes over the weekend, demanding state leaders enforce New York’s climate laws as major polluters threaten the region’s air, water, and economy. www.fingerlakes1.com/2025/09/22/c...

877-559-7809 Governor Hochul can still enforce one more agency DEC to follow our law and #stopthewilliamspipeline Call all day - speak to an operator and call all night and leave a message. 🌺 Don’t give up. We will not give up. We Won’t Pay To Be Poisoned.

The Trump administration plans to deploy more than 200 Homeland Security officers to a naval installation outside of Chicago to start an immigration enforcement campaign in the city.

Quote from post by Valdi Weiderpass: 'I was proud to share the stage with concerned New Yorkers and be one of the speakers for this press conference to oppose approval of more fossil fuel pipelines #DenyNESEpipeline #DenyConstitutionPipeline

Food & Water Watch Governor Kathy Hochul celebrated her birthday in Buffalo, and we showed up to her party to remind her that she needs to stop fracked gas pipelines and other fossil fuel infrastructure! #saveourenvironment

NO NEW PIPELINES: The NESE pipeline has been rejected before for being bad for our waterways, and the federal administration is supporting this project’s revival. It’s time for Governor Hochul and Albany leaders to stand firm and say no to these pipelines.

NY DEC is reportedly considering permits for gas pipelines, including an attempt to resurrect the previously rejected Constitution Pipeline, which would run through Susquehanna Group area near Binghamton, from PA to near Schenectady, parallel to I-88 for much of its route.

Last week, a federal judge in Montana ruled that the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service broke the law when it refused to grant protections for wolves in Idaho, Montana, Wyoming, and parts of Washington, Oregon, and Utah. #wildlife #wolves

New York State Senate Bill S7618, sponsored by Sen. Michelle Hinchey and Assembly member Karines Reyes, proposes uniform labeling terms to help consumers better understand when food is safe to eat. #NYsenate #FoodWaste

Knowing how to recognize and react to trolls, bots and Big Oil agents who are trying to mislead you about manmade climate change is vital to motivate the public to embrace climate action. @sciencenotdogma.bsky.social

Right now, the NYS Dept of Environmental Conservation (DEC) is accepting public comments on a new fracked gas pipeline called the Northeast Supply Enhancement act.sierraclub.org/actions/Nati...

Nobody in NY State appears to be responsible for the state doing its part to Save a Habitable Climate, despite the state's economy being the 10th largest in the world, and the state being a wealthy state, that has been controlled by a political party that claims to care about acting on climate.

EarthJustice: On Thursday, a federal court ruled in our favor and ordered the Trump administration to restore six USDA grants to sustainable agriculture organizations.

The Trump administration is expected as soon as Aug. 18 to take another step toward curbing the growth of renewable energy in the United States by making it harder for companies to claim federal tax subsidies for wind and solar energy. #weneedrenewables

On Friday August 8, a federal court in Honolulu delivered a major win for the Pacific Islands Heritage National Monument ruling that the Trump administration’s attempt to open over 400,000 square miles of protected waters to commercial fishing is unlawful. #saveouroceans

As if any doubt remained, the Trump administration has formalized climate denial as the official policy of the United States government.This would strike a decisive blow to the EPA's authority to limit deadly greenhouse gas emissions and protect our people and our planet from the climate crisis.

Excerpt article in Grist: What do an offshore wind farm in New York, a campaign to install 275,000 heat pumps in Maine, and the cancellation of the Keystone XL pipeline have in common? They were all the result of community-based strategies with involvement or leadership from local grassroots groups

Valdi Weiderpass was honored to represent Sierra Club Atlantic Chapter, as Chair of Susquehanna Group of the Sierra Club, in Binghamton at a press conference. New York needs to deny permits for any new gas pipelines and instead rapidly build renewable energy. #renewableenergy

Trump is trying to bully New York into approving two long-dead fracked gas pipelines! Join us in urging Governor Kathy Hochul to reject these pipelines by making a quick call now: 866-872-5958

The NY State Assembly has established a pattern of leaving bills to the last days of the session and then not even putting them on the floor for a vote, even if they have enough support to pass. nysfocus.com/2025/06/27/p...

Last week, we celebrated the launch of @robgmacfarlane.bsky.social 's powerful new book “Is a River Alive?” We explored the growing movement to recognize the rights of rivers and reimagine our relationships with water. Missed it? Watch the recording here: sierraclub.bc.ca/is-a-river-a...

the more you read about nuclear power, the worse it looks. Too expensive, too toxic, too risky and too slow to build, in order to be a viable climate solution. It's not zero emission, either. #NoNuclear #renewables #solar #wind
