Report on the Albany Protest on Thursday 2/6

[Jen Lahey]

Hi All
Yesterday a fabulous team of activists showed up at the PSC meeting to 
protest the Albany Loop pipeline.  And already 200 calls have been made 
to the Gov's office.
Even if you already called earlier this week - call again today!

*PLEASE FORWARD THIS EMAIL WIDELY*
A proposed fracked gas pipeline would go through the heart of the 
Capitol region. If built, the Albany loop pipeline would be 7.3 miles 
long and cut through the Hudson River, Interstate 90 and towns 
in Albany and Rensselaer counties.

This pipeline would threaten the Hudson River and local communities, 
while locking New York into climate-destroying fossil fuels. That’s why 
the town boards of East Greenbush and Bethlehem have voted to oppose the 
project.

<https://insideclimatenews.org/news/30012020/new-york-pipelines-natural-gas-national-grid>*On 
Thursday in Albany, activists delivered a letter signed by over 100 
organizations calling on Governor Cuomo and John Rhodes, chair of the 
Public Service Commission, to stop the pipeline – please support their 
efforts by calling today and throughout the weekend.*

New York needs renewable energy, and we need it yesterday. We *cannot 
*lock ourselves into decades more of fossil fuels while the climate 
crisis intensifies.

*Call Governor Cuomo @ 877-235-6537 and tell him to stop 
the Albany Loop pipeline, and all fossil fuel projects. New Yorkers want 
renewable alternatives NOW.*
