Sample script:
Hi, my name is ___, I live in ___, and I'm a climate advocate with ___.
We have seen very little movement on climate legislation since 2019. Passing just one or two climate bills this year is not enough! The Climate Action Council has said we need the All-Electric Building Act (bill number S6843C/A8431B) to pass this session to meet our CLCPA-mandated climate targets in time. This bill will ensure new buildings are all-electric, which will slash New York’s largest source of emissions and make new buildings more affordable and healthier. The climate can’t wait!
🔥 If you are on Twitter, please tweet and retweet using the hashtag #RenewableHeatNow
A year ago, building electrification was nowhere near the top of the state’s climate agenda, yet because of YOU we’ve passed a very important bill and are on the verge of passing another. Now we need to get all hands on deck to make sure the All-Electric Building Act is not left behind.
With love and appreciation,
Amber at AGREE
