Getting the NY HEAT Act Passed in 2025
Monday, January 13, 2025 at 7:00 PM
via Zoom
2024 is on track to be the hottest year on record. At a time when UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres warns, “the earth is ablaze,” the incoming Trump administration is determined to roll back as many environmental protections as possible. These years are too critical; we cannot and must not wait another four years.
New York can take a critical leadership role in the U.S., setting the pace for other states. A broad coalition of environmental groups is making the NY HEAT Act their top priority for 2025. Join us to hear from Lisa Marshall, organizer for New Yorkers for Clean Power, about this groundbreaking legislation – and what we can all do now to get this bill passed in 2025. We’ll also hear about other critical state priorities for the coming session.

Activist meetings
Monthly activist meetings via Zoom usually occur on the 4th Tuesday of the month, and generally have two parts when we have a speaker: A business meeting starts at 7:00pm, in which our elected ExCom handles decisions about spending, communications, policy, etc., open to all Sierra Club members. Then at 7:30 pm we sometimes have a presentation open to the public about some environmental topic such as habitat, the climate emergency, or recycling.
We are NOT meeting in December, 2024.
Our next LHG ExCom meeting is scheduled for Tuesday, January 28, 2025 starting at 7:00 PM via Zoom:

The Letter: A Message for Our Earth - A Movie
This 2022 film tells the story of Pope Francis’s 2015 Laudato Si’, a controversial plea for the world to wake up to the destruction of Creation wrought by us. At 1 hour 20 minutes, it is moving and refreshing. Several people are invited to meet the pope. They represent youth, indigenous peoples, the poor, and the voice of Nature.
