Nuclear energy is too toxic, too dangerous, too expensive, and too slow to build to be a real solution to the climate or affordability crisis facing New York families. It is also an environmental justice disaster, with Indigenous communities carrying a disproportionate share of the harm. Despite all of this, Governor Hochul has put nuclear power at the center of the state’s energy future, while more affordable and truly renewable solutions keep getting pushed aside. 

Communities across New York are done accepting that. We are coming together to reject this false solution and demand that the state invest in an energy future that works for everyone.

Join us in NYC as a part of Communities Against Nuclear: Days of Action to Protest Hochul’s Dangerous Nuclear Buildout. These days of statewide distributed actions consists of rallies, press conferences, and teach-ins, including in Buffalo, Rochester, Syracuse, the North Country, Binghamton, Westchester, New York City, and Long Island. Together, we will show statewide and local opposition to Hochul’s expensive and dangerous nuclear plan.

These events are being led by NY Renews, Frack Action, AGREE, NIRS, Food & Water Watch, NYPIRG, Campaign for a Nuclear-Free North Country, and partners from several Haudenosaunee Nations. By registering, you agree to be contacted by the organizations.
