Rally: Governor Lamont, No More Methane Gas!

From the CT Sierra Club:

In January, Governor Ned Lamont stated his support for “natural” methane gas during his State of the State address. Then, last month , he signed off on allowing the Capitol Area System heating and cooling system to be updated with fossil fuels — continuing to make Hartford a sacrifice zone and fueling the climate crisis. 

We’re standing up and saying enough; enough with polluted air, continued asthma, and dirty energy. Connecticut deserves better. Instead, we must pursue clean energy that helps our communities to thrive.

We’re calling on Governor Lamont to:

• Reverse his decision on the Capitol Area System and move forward with network geothermal.
• Deny the permits for the Brookfield Compressor Stations.

Now is not the time for fossil fuels. Now is the time to invest in clean and renewable energy. Join us on March 31st as we hold a press conference at the Legislative Office Building, before marching to the Capitol Area System, where we will do a die-in to represent the harm that this fossil fuel infrastructure inflicts on the community.
