NY Climate Commies Protest Gov. Hochul : Ban Gas, Make NY Electric

 Feb 17, 2022. Noon. Hard Core Leftists - Climate activists gathered outside the 2022 New York State Democratic Committee Nominating Convention at the Times Square Sheraton Hotel. 

 As Democrats met inside, to choose the un-elected Gov Hochul to now run for election, the climate-commies were outside ...

 

... reminding Hochul that she promised to make NY State an all ELECTRIC State; to BAN fossil fuel aka GAS. And she needs to do that NOW!

(This Cuomo-clone is going to be very BAD for NY)

. 4 short VIDEOS: Part 1- Part 1 is the Introductions to the BAN Gas Protest/Rally. "Stan" says our building are STUCK on fossil fuel.  This must END. He also introduces all the LEFTY orgs behind the BAN Gas Movement. Starting in 2024 fossil fuels will be banned.

Part 2- (excerpted) Two women spoke of fossil fuel  disasters that impacted their lives. And why it is imperative that we ho from FOSSIL FUEL to ELECTRIC.

Part 3-This man is a contractor and climate activist contractor promoting a GAS FREE NY. (excerpted). He says the TIME LINE to go ELECTRIC is too long (with too many loop holes). There are moral and legal obligations to PREVENT Climate "Change". He claims this is a solvable problem and adds that very frack gas building is an opportunity lost to reduce our carbon emissions. We're missing this opportunity NOW to reduce our carbon foot print. He then mentions their campaign to ban fracking in NY State. We DID IT! Gov. Hochul needs to put the all electric act in to THIS budget.

Part 4 -  Brooklyn activists talk of their success in Pennsylvania killing fracking deals that the farmers wanted/and needed. Now they are focused on a pipeline planned in Brooklyn. The second woman promotes the success she had filling the youth of America with climate fear of the future.

NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) — The fight against climate change is coming to a building near you. Gas-powered stoves, space heaters and water boilers will soon be a thing of the past. On Wednesday, the New York City Council voted to ban natural gas from all new construction and require electrical instead...

“This bill was about prioritizing people over profits and over properties,” said Councilwoman Alicka Ampry-Samuel, the bill’s sponsor.

BREAKING: The @NYCCouncil just voted to ban gas usage in new buildings, capping off our historic climate forward agenda for NYC. #GasFreeNYC

I’m so proud of our work this term confronting crises with sound action & I look forward to the next Council picking up where we left off.  NYC Council Speaker Corey Johnson (@NYCSpeakerCoJo)

Ampry-Samuel said New Yorkers must take steps to fight climate change that scientists blame for mega-storms like Hurricane Ida and Superstorm Sandy.

 

“Sandy destroyed my home because of fracked gas that does not stay in the earth. It’s adding to the climate change going on,” storm victim Rachel Rivera said.

Proponents say the ban will significantly reduce the burning of fossil fuels, which drives climate change. Opponents say it’ll cost thousands of jobs and could lead to city-wide blackouts.

“That’ll be putting a dent in a lot of the workers in the city, could be leaving a lot of people out of work, because it’s a major part of our work,” plumber Jose Encarnacion said.

 

Listen, we’re not against climate control. We’re all for it, but it has to be done at the right pace and we got to have a plan in place to do it,” added Mike Capuzzo of Plumbers Local 1. 

 

“First thing, we don’t know if the wires in the street are even big enough to handle it.”

National Grid says it worries about strain on the power grid during winter months, and consumer analysts say they expect heating bills to rise significantly.

“Natural gas is our most abundant energy supply here in the United States, and to take that out of the equation, it’s just a simple matter of supply and demand. Less energy available means the cost of energy goes up for everyone,” said Mike Butler of the Consumer Energy Alliance.

Mayor Bill de Blasio called the bill a historic step toward the goal of reaching carbon neutrality by the year 2050. Developers negotiated a delay until 2027 for buildings taller than seven stories.

More Climate lunacy. On Joe Rogan, Andrew Dessler, a climate change  biggy, refused to debate the pros/cons of his position.

 

 Staying true to his word, Joe Rogan brought Andrew Dessler the “other side” on to represent the mainstream narrative on climate science. When asked if he would ever debate Dessler states “I won’t debate the science, the science is set”. Sound familiar?

So, basically, Dessler claims there's no way for him to be more convincing than someone saying the opposite. His argument boils down to an appeal to authority. And yet he wonders why people aren't convinced by pronouncement of fact versus someone willing to explain and debate.

 

=== Since HILLARY was also speaking inside,  her no mandates 'fan club'  challenged the climate loons by chanting: LOCK HER UP, LOCK HER UP (over and over) ===

 Say NO to Mask Mandates was also meant for our UN-ELECTED Gov. Hochul. She, along with Mayor deBozo's clone, Mayor Adams, has maintained the mask mandate in NYC. The State is mask-free but NOT NYC.

..You Tube. This No Mask Mandates Protest aimed at Hillary and Gov. Hochul was outside the hotel (along with the Commie Climate Loons) while the Democrat convention met inside. The hard core lefties were also demanding a Gas Free NY State. While I covered the Climate Loons, the Hillary Protest disappeared. (They reappeared later to heckle Hillary as she used a side entrance) Sorry I missed that)

The protest may have been small, but very LOUD when they reappeared later to challenge Hillary's coming and going at the Sheraton SIDE entrance. See the twitter videos :

 Luke2Freedom TV (@L2FTV): "Anti-Mandate activists took the side of the street next to the Sheraton Hotel to voice their frustrations where Hillary Clinton and Governor Hochul made an appearance."

 

•  On Feb 11, 2022 : These were the States WITHOUT mask mandates [US NEWS] [https://www.usnews.com/news/best-states/articles/these-are-the-states-with-mask-mandates] At that time, 6 states maintained their mandates.

  These 5 States were ending their mask mandates:
  California, Illinois, New Mexico, Oregon, Washington.

  FYI: District of Columbia has a MASK Mandate in place for everyone

  UPDATE Feb 23: At a presser, NYC Mayor Adams insinuates he is planning to end the mandates and forced vaccines.
  

   
  Mayor Adams hinted Wednesday that he will soon roll back the city’s coronavirus vaccine and mask mandates for indoor settings as infection rates continue to drop across New York.

  The mayor didn’t give an exact timeline for when he envisions ending the longstanding pandemic precautions, but told reporters at an unrelated press conference in Brooklyn that rescinding them is a top priority for him.

  “Yes, and I can’t wait to get it done,” Adams said when asked if he plans to phase out the city’s indoor vaccine mandate for dining, fitness and other activities.

  “Yes, and I can’t wait to get it done,” Adams said when asked if he plans to phase out the city’s indoor vaccine mandate for dining, fitness and other activities.

  “I look forward in the next few weeks to going through a real transformation that I don’t have to wonder what you look like. I will know what you look like again,” he said, motioning to masked reporters in the room

 We'll soon see if he means it....

NYC Stands With Ottawa Against Tyranny (pics and vids)

From CANADA, "Protesters have been at the land border for 12 days with on-and-off blockades, making travel between the United States and Canada impossible at times. The blockades have stranded travellers and cross-border truckers and cost millions of dollars in trade."  [https://policyoptions.irpp.org/magazines/february-2022/provincial-paths-diverge-on-vaccine-mandates-and-passports/]

  Meanwhile, on Feb 15, 2022, outside the Canadian Consulate in Manhattan:

... Americans gathered to show that NYC Stands with Ottawa.  (see video)

Unable to stay til the crowd grew (and it did). And, yes, they danced in front of the Canadian consulate. See video: Dancing NYC protestors [@ViralNewsNYC]

 

... Flickr Slide Show outside Canadian Consulate in Manhattan.

 

...Then, THREE days later, on Feb 18, 2022: "Trucker protest in Ottawa escalates as police clash with Freedom Convoy demonstrators, 150 arrested as authorities retake Parliament Hill area."video at the Blaze TV link [Blaze TV]

From bad to worse as this Canadian tyrant sent armed police in to the un-armed crowd, with the shameful co-operation of the police---just following orders ---  as they trampled peaceful protestors under horses hooves.

Shame, Shame on Trudeau and his lackeys, LOOKING more and more like 1917 Bolsheviks.

BUT CANADIANS are NOT backing down. See video of the People of Calgary marching for freedom. (Denver Hodge Fund @DerAchsenZeit]

What follows is a list of some of the Canadian passport mandates.

Quebec had the most stringent vaccine passport.
Most provinces and territories have passports that apply to restaurants and bars, cultural and sporting venues, and some limited non-essential retail.

Quebec was the only one to require it in big-box retail spaces such as Canadian Tire, Walmart and Costco. This requirement was short-lived, with Quebec announcing Feb. 15 that vaccine passports will no longer be required in big-box stores and provincial liquor and cannabis outlets.

Quebec has had many of the most stringent public health measures ...  it was the only province to implement a curfew.

British Columbia, New Brunswick, Newfoundland, Nova Scotia and Yukon stand out as having the most stringent vaccine mandates in the country. Without vaccination, people can be put on unpaid leave, with the possibility of permanent dismissal.

Voluntary proof-of-vaccination programs also exist in the Northwest Territories, while Nunavut does not have a vaccine passport in place at all.

British Columbia, the Yukon, the Northwest Territories, and the Atlantic provinces have not yet announced a calendar to remove the vaccine passport. (A calendar to remove the vaccine passport) something that Saskatchewan (Feb. 14), Ontario (March 1), Manitoba (March 1) and Quebec (March 14) all have done.

 Saskatchewan has had some of the lowest stringency of public health measures. Saskatchewan Premier Scott Moe announced recently that he plans to abolish all COVID-19 measures, with the province’s vaccination passport first to go on Feb. 14.

Premier Moe asserted in a recent message to Saskatchewan and Canadian truckers that “vaccination is not reducing transmission” despite consensus from public health experts that "vaccines both reduce transmission and severe illness".

=== And finally, Pastor Pawlowski ===

I heard Pastor Pawlowski speak in Manhattan on June 15, 2021. He told us of when the “Canadian police tried to shut down a POLISH church on Easter as he declared “NO NO GET OUT GET OUT!”  The Polish have a PROFOUND understanding of totalitarianism (fascism, communism) and sent the police away!”. videos at LINK [https://thesilentmajoritynomore.com/2021/06/23/courageous-faith-with-canadas-pastor-artur-pawlowski-services-shut-down-no-no-get-out/]

UPDATE, Feb 15, 2022, as the Canadian government  continues the harassment of Pastor Pawlowski [https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/calgary/pawlowski-arrest-coutts-rcmp-charges-bail-1.6345808]

"Artur Pawlowski of Calgary was arrested Monday after he gave a speech last week at the Smugglers Saloon in Coutts, where protesters have been blocking travel to the United States on and off since Jan. 29. (He is) being blamed for extending the blockade at the Coutts border crossing."

A video of the 'offending' speech posted online shows Pawlowski telling the crowd that "for freedom to be preserved, people must be willing to sacrifice their lives. This is our time. If this is our Alamo, then so be it," he said.

(Johnston) called Pawlowski's words an "overt threat to violence."

"At no time did [Pawlowski] tell them to block the roads, he told them to remain and protest," (Haggerty) in arguing for his client's release.

Feb. 21, 2022: The tyranny of this despot, Prime Minster Trudeau and his complicit police force, continues. Will the U.S. be next?

.Andrew Giuliani (candidate for NY Gov) was the first speaker.

Excerpted quotes from Giuliani speaking (beginning at 1:09)

"What I ask of the government today. Look at the data. Follow the science ... This is all about power and control. Getting NY-rs to bend their knee to the government ... The 4000 workers who could lose their jobs today. Health care workers. Cops. the Bravest who run into these fires. ...

WE are their bosses. (Hochul. Adams) They work for us. For the people .... These un-Constitutional mandates .... They want our silence. To shut up and comply.

This is NOT about the science. The data.  WE have followed the science when it comes to our children. (the mothers) have been begging- pleading to follow the science.

We need to let the truth led the way. CHOICE. Let's unmask our children and stand with those who are standing for our freedom"

They want our silence. To COMPLY. WE have followed the science. (the mothers) have been begging- pleading to follow the science."

An article that came out on the 11th:

Pfizer and BioNTech announced Friday that they are postponing their application to the Food and Drug Administration for the companies' COVID-19 vaccine for children between the ages of six months and four years old.

The big picture: The companies said they "will wait for the three-dose data" because they "believe it may provide a higher level of protection in this age group." [https://www.axios.com/pfizer-fda-request-children-vaccine-withdraw-89125dda-a5c2-453a-9292-0606330b4182.html]
