NY’s Top Lobbyists Playing Both Sides Of Climate Crisis
New York’s leading fossil fuel lobbyists are simultaneously lobbying on behalf of environmental groups, hospitals, universities, cultural institutions, and tech giants such as Google, Microsoft, and Amazon, according to a new report from F Minus and LittleSis. The report argues that such “double agent” lobbyists are part of a strategy by the fossil fuel industry to greenwash its image and dissuade state lawmakers from supporting climate proposals such as the NY HEAT Act and the Climate Change Superfund Act. James Browning of F Minus talks to Mark Dunlea for Hudson Mohawk Magazine.
