CW4A Webinar- Local Law 97 is here! New Yorkers Tackling the Climate Crisis

Climate Works for All (CW4A) is inviting you to join us for our Local Law 97 is here! New Yorkers Tackling the Climate Crisis webinar on September 22, 2022 at 6:00 – 7:30 PM EST.

During this webinar CW4A will bring Climate Week back to every day New Yorkers and discuss how advocating for equitable implementation of city laws like Local Law 97 (LL97) can ensure a healthier and safer future for all of New York. We will also demystify the barriers around actively working towards a just climate transition using resources available to every day New Yorkers through LL97.  We want to center the experiences of communities and work to create a space where we can talk to New Yokers about LL97, how it impacts our everyday lives and how we can advocate for an equitable implementation of LL97.

The most effective watchdogs are often those who are on the ground and closest to the work. New Yorkers should know and understand the requirements set forth in LL97 and can act as on-the-ground enforcement to ensure that building owners are meeting their requirements. This can only happen if we are aware of the responsibilities of our landlords and the methods of recourse available to us.
