> A MONTH OF ACTION!

> Saturday, May 14: Break Free Northeast Mass Action to Stop the Oil Trains and Break Free of Fossil Fuels 10 am – Lincoln Park in Albany, NY
>
> In Albany, on May 14th, as part of a global week of fossil fuel resistance organized by 350.org <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001I-FSFWdXF5dde7njLA-4p1GyrPt1wQuLf5vAqwHmbeeLOK2L6wOAkZAsBzXVQqRwBX9zgm6yXTwm_INRulBXlBHXIUskmw4HgYE7JjEPKKBKBYbEHU2t3RhOyyHFhc-NmLXaSwfMxEU=&c=ZBs5SJCF5V1sE_wHdxa8l3Svg6N2C0IGayuz0TS00-u1jvIPOxjyuw==&ch=KxZXhqZIB43Umuw4431yXx_p6wROxmWqR3C28OCY4ROmtQE78Q6VBg==> , thousands of people will stand in the way of the fossil fuel industry in North America. Many people will participate in direct action, and many more will come to rally and stand in solidarity. PCM-NY supports this action and urges you to make it to this action: how you participate is up to you, but please be there.
>
> Representing a coalition from across the northeast, we will gather with frontline communities, including Ezra Prentice Homes, and others living in the oil train blast zone. This act of mass civil disobedience against oil trains will also stand against fracked gas infrastructure and pipelines like AIM, and other fossil fuel projects like the Pilgrim Pipeline and Indian Point. Gathering pipeline-fighters, power plant fighters and compression station resisters from across the region, we'll join together to say it’s time to stop investing in the ways of the past.

> Monday, May 23rd - Help Stop Spectra Energy’s AIM Pipeline 12 noon Office of Senator Charles Schumer – 780 3rd Ave., between 48th and 49th St.
>
> Residents of Westchester County and New York City are rising up to oppose Spectra Energy’s AIM Pipeline. The AIM Pipeline would carry high-pressure, dangerous methane gas within 105 feet of Indian Point nuclear power plant facilities - and construction is already underway. We cannot let this happen. Now is the time for us to stop this pipeline for good.
>
>
> Senator Schumer can influence the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission and the rest of the Senate to reject this pipeline at the federal level. We will gather to tell Schumer we need him to stand up against the AIM Pipeline. He should:
>
> Publicly request a full stop to all construction.
> Join Governor Cuomo in calling for an independent health and safety evaluation
> Lead a charge among fellow Senators in states along the pipeline route to put an end to this project once and for all.

> On May 31st New Yorkers from across the city are going to the Clean Energy Standard hearing in lower Manhattan to help spark a renewable energy revolution in the Empire State. We need you there with us--for our climate, our economy, and the city we love. This is the big one.
>
>
> Some background: Governor Cuomo recently established a new 'Clean Energy Standard' that aims to have 50 percent of the state's energy come from renewables by 2030. PCM-NY would like the goal to be 100% by 2030, but at least we need to make sure this new goal is enforceable--that it actually compels utilities to purchase renewables--and that it includes a specific commitment to large-scale offshore wind development. Without an offshore wind commitment, New York will miss out on a massive untapped renewable resource that could create thousands of new jobs.
