08/06 – Get On The Bus To Albany!

The Climate and Community Investment Act didn’t even move past the committee stage, and a half dozen other bills that proposed climate solutions were similarly stonewalled. Want to do something? On August 6th, New York Youth Climate Leaders […]

Carbon Free January Week 1 – (Car)bon Free

Welcome to week 1 of going carbon free. Our challenge this week is to go car free for the entire week! We know most of you New Yorkers don’t have a car, so you’re already living a more carbon free life than the rest of the country— good job! We are lucky to live in a city that has great public transportation, but in the midst of the pandemic, you may be using a car more than usual. This week, instead of taking an uber or taxi, let’s pedal, walk or float on our merry way to becoming a fully sustainable city!

But as January nears, and we are making our new year’s resolutions, we wanted to look more deeply at our own personal choices.
