It's March 13th. Here's your Buffalo News in two minutes. Governor Kathy Hochul says, New York's current way of calculating emissions paints a false picture. It makes the state look like it's falling behind other places on climate progress, even if that's not the full story.
Assemblymember Deborah Glick, who chairs the Environmental Conservation Committee, pushes back on this. She disagrees with the governor on several green issues tied to the state's climate goals. Glick recently sat down on Capitol Tonight with Susan Arbetter to break it all down. She highlighted concerns over how the climate law is working in practice.
Now, budget talks ramp up next week. Glick shared what she's pushing for to strengthen environmental protections amid the negotiations. Meanwhile, these debates could shape how New York measures and funds its path to lower emissions.
