Fossil fuel companies and Wall Street hedge funds want to build two new fracked gas plants - the Danskammer plant in Newburgh, NY ([link removed]) and the NRG fracked gas plant in Astoria, Queens. ([link removed])
Building these plants would pollute our air and lock us into climate catastrophe. We have a chance to stop them if we act together - here’s how you can help!

** Rally & Press Conference to Stop the Astoria NRG Fracked Gas Plant
------------------------------------------------------------
Astoria Park, by the water, Astoria, NY 11105
Thursday, August 26th, 4:45pm
RSVP Here ([link removed])
Join Food and Water Watch, other activists, and elected officials for an in-person press conference and rally at Astoria Park on 8/26! Plan to join the evening hearing on the NRG fracked gas plant at 6pm from your phone at Astoria Park - we’ll all call in together to voice our opposition.
Our New Governor, Kathy Hochul and her Department of Environmental Conservation have the authority to stop this polluting proposal, but it will take our collective action to convince her to side with the people, science, and public health, over the interests of rich and powerful fossil fuel corporations.
