Over the past 12 months, courts from Indonesia to Australia have made groundbreaking rulings that blocked polluting power plants and denounced the human rights violations of the climate crisis. But 2023 could be even more important, with hearings and judgments across the world poised to throw light on the worst perpetrators, give victims a voice and force recalcitrant governments and companies into action.

Very excited to read about the #healthbenefits from this #climatelegislation, and from a #pediatrician's perspective, this is a big #environmentaljustice #climatejustice win, especially for #childhealth in our communities.
However, much work remains to be done & more legislation needs to be passed - such as the #NYS Climate, Justice, and Jobs Package being supported by #NYRenews. Climate legislation is public health legislation.
This week, the #NYS Climate Action Council released "the Scoping Plan" roadmap for reaching the greenhouse gas emission reduction goals enshrined in the 2019 Climate Leadership & Community Protection Act.
It's expected to yield at least $115 billion in net benefits from improved public health and avoided damages from climate change, & create up to 211,000 jobs by 2030 and up to 318,000 by 2040.

I think the big takeaways from this #NYTimes article (https://nyti.ms/3V9Eqsm) are:
1. Driving less will drive down your #climateemissions & is a great way to take #climateaction
2. Communities need to invest in #publictransit powered by #cleanenergy.
3. Individual action is important but #urbanplanning, #climatelegislation, and building #resilience in communities should be our priority.
Another way for #NewYorkers to take #climateaction this week:
Sign up to call Senate Majority Leader Stewart-Cousins and Assembly Speaker Heastie this coming Monday (12/5) through #NYRenews and ask them to prioritize passing the Climate Justice and Jobs Package. This #climatelegislation is important for moving #NYC #NYS forward to confront #climatechange and is essential for #climatejustice #environmentaljustice efforts.

Thanks to the amazing new Empire of Dirt #climate substack written by @lissaharris, I was happy to read the Win.Climate think tank's cost-saving analysis of the All Electric Building Act under consideration by the 2023 #NYS legislature. #climatelegislation
However, the study only considers energy savings from #heatpumps b/w Oct-Mar months, & doesn't include the savings heat pumps may provide for homes during #heatwaves in the summer. I would love to see that analysis done in addition.
