Every polluting industry is in line for a handout - but we can’t get to zero in time without taking the most direct path.
No garbage burning, CCS, nuclear plants or other wastes of time & money.

The nuclear industry always exploits and harms Indigenous communities.
Dr. Tommy Rock explains that the Navajo Nation contains over 500 abandoned uranium mines, which leads to contaminated water.

Can we really meet NY’s energy & climate needs w/ renewable energy?
✅Absolutely!
Renewables & efficiency ramped up so fast since NYS struck agreement to close Indian Point nuclear plant that reliance on fossil fuel-fired electricity actually fell 10% btw 2016 & 2020...
Great oped in the Times Union today from Jessica Azulay, Executive Director of the Alliance for a Green Economy.
Yes, renewables can supply New York's energy needs.

As @agreenewyork's Jessica Azulay points out in today's @timesunion: We don’t need any new gas plants to meet our energy needs now that Indian Point has shut down. timesunion.com/opinion/artic…

The choice between nuclear and gas is a false choice.
.@ssteingraber1 breaks down the public health field’s long history of fighting against false choices.
It’s the same playbook, from coal to DDT to tobacco:

"Indian Point’s operation posed risks to millions of New Yorkers — risks which will be mitigated now it’s shutting down and getting replaced not with fracked gas, but with renewable energy and energy efficiency." — @MarkRuffalo and @ReneeVogelsang 🔆 on.nrdc.org/3o537az

"Closing #IndianPoint and other obsolete nuclear plants will usher in New York’s clean energy future." – @MarkRuffalo and @ReneeVogelsang in @NYDailyNews op-ed nydailynews.com/opinion/ny-o…

Co-authored this Opinion piece in the Daily News with my climate comrade @MarkRuffalo on the transition to 100% renewables in NY.
"Gas was always a false climate solution and a “bridge fuel” to nowhere. And so is nuclear.”

Indian Point nuclear plant is closing this week.
Some people are relieved and continue to work for a nuclear-free, carbon-free energy future in NY.
Others are fear mongering and spreading misinformation.
Here’s what’s going on... 👇

You guys this is a fantastic grassroots campaign led by some of the smartest, most skillful organizers I have ever worked with. If you are looking for a portal into renewable energy activism that closes the door on both natural gas and nukes, look no further.

Nukes vs #fracking is a false choice. New Yorkers, join us tonight at 7 pm to reflect on the impending closure, on 4/30, of the 50-yo Indian Point nuclear plant and what it means for the fate of our state's fracked gas plants. We are centering health. bit.ly/3rmziSP

Today is the day! Join us tonight at 7pm Eastern to learn about why 100% renewables is the path to better public health. A great panel featuring Dr. Sandra Steingraber, Dr. Patricia DeMarco and Dr. Tommy Rock. Register here- bit.ly/3rmziSP @ssteingraber1 @_demarcop6

.@nytimes gets it wrong in today’s biased story on #IndianPoint featuring pro-nuclear sources. NY will more than replace the energy from both reactors with renewables and efficiency by 2024.

Yes, we can
World already on track for 80% renewables by 2030
World can go 100% renewable electricity by 2030
We just need to go faster
And 100% renewable in total energy by 2035
That's why I'm one of 47 scientists to sign this joint declaration

New Yorkers! Here's the plan for how we arrive at 100% renewable energy without fracked gas or nukes. This is a doable project. Join us on April 14.

AND... do you know the health effects of living near a nuclear plant even when there is no reported incident? @Beyond_IP is hosting a Forum on April 14: The Public Health Case for a 100% Renewable New York facebook.com/events/16472847…
