When:
May 5, 2014: 9:30AM to 3:00PM
Where:
Hearing Room C of the Legislative Office Building, 198 State Street, Albany, NY 12210 map

Riverkeeper and its partners in the environmental community will descend on the state Capitol in Albany to advocate for environmental protections and to let our legislators know we expect them to deliver.

It’s the personal and direct advocacy Earth Day Lobby Day provides that has helped keep fracking at bay, updated New York’s bottle recycling law, protected habitats statewide, advanced renewable energy and green jobs, and much more.

The 2014 agenda includes:
-Child Safe Products Act
-Climate Change
-Fracking Moratorium
-Toxic Waste Cleanups
-GMO Labeling

Politicians have a way of saying one thing to constituents each election year, but doing another once inside Capitol doors. Let’s open those doors to the public and make this Earth Day Lobby Day another great success.
