As the President heads to his fundraiser, the grassroots climate justice movement is uniting to greet him with a clear message: no Keystone XL Pipeline and no dirty energy pipelines in NYC! We want a clean energy future and that does not include tar sands or fracked natural gas, or deadly pipelines — in fact, the future of our city depends on it.
In October, NYC saw first hand the reality of climate change when Hurricane Sandy hit our homes and communities. Now it’s up to the President to take that seriously and stop fossil fuel projects that will only bring more destruction to places like New York.
