Congressman Tom Suozzi, Congresswoman Kathleen Rice, NY Senator Todd Kaminsky, Nassau County Executive Laura Curran and so many other prominent voices provided 30 second video messages on why they support offshore wind!

Check out our new video series and interactive map featuring diverse Long Island voices on why they support offshore wind

New York is a leader in offshore wind development. In 2019, NY passed the nation’s most aggressive climate bill, which mandates 70% renewable energy by 2030 and 9,000MW of offshore wind by 2035. To meet these ambitious goals, New York has already selected five offshore wind projects that will power over two million homes in NYC and Long Island. 

We have been working with a diverse coalition of student groups, community stakeholders, elected leaders, environmental experts, labor leaders, and more to voice support for offshore wind on Long Island. We recently compiled short videos from a variety of these prominent “Voices for Wind” in an interactive map, which allows our partners and the public to share why they support transitioning away from fossil fuels to offshore wind in their community.   Check out our “Voices for Wind” series today!

If you would like to submit a video please contact CCE Executive Director, Adrienne Esposito at aesposito@citizenscampaign.org
