Catching up on #climatechange news in #NYS after some busy time in the hospital on service.

Very pleased to read about the governor's signing of the Cumulative Impacts Bill, an important step forward for #climatejustice #environmentaljustice in #NYC and the state.

As a #pediatrician in the Bronx, I can attest to the impact of heavy #pollution on #childhealth.

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.

@lissaharris also from a #climateaction perspective:

- Win.Climate study shows winter energy saving costs from #heatpumps are greater mainly in Hudson Valley and upstate regions.
- I would expect energy savings in NYC and suburbs would be greater in summer compared to other regions because of the #heatisland effect
- NYRenews's CJJ Package doesn't include this legislation but seems like with additional summertime savings data would make economic sense & strong #climateadvocacy for all of #NYS

@CityAtlas yeah, thanks for this! Thankfully there is a new #climatechange legislative agenda for #NYS this year that the #NYRenews coalition is supporting: The Climate, Jobs, and Justice Package (@lissaharris just published a great article on this in the Times Union). I noticed that there are no #healthcare organizers as part of the coalition & I've reached out to the NY Clinicians for Climate Action group (bit.ly/3gw7nk8) to hopefully sign onto this #climateadvocacy.
