In celebration of @JohnPrine's 80th, the @soundopinions convo with JP on the occasion of his final studio LP and an in-depth look at his timeless debut album with author @erinoz80, all wrapped up in one show (link in comments). How lucky can one man get?

A new @UN report found that toxic “forever chemicals” called PFAS pose a profound threat to human rights and the environment. Actor and activist @MarkRuffalo and environmental attorney @RobertBilott have joined the call to ban all non-essential uses of PFAS to protect our planet and our health.

Good news! A federal court just rejected a key permit of a proposed natural gas pipeline that would run through New Jersey for failing to meet water quality standards. This is a win for New Jersey communities and waterways alike. nytimes.com/2026/09/08/nyreg…

Court Halts New York Harbor Gas Pipeline Backed by Trump

The ruling centered on the granting of a water permit by New Jersey regulators, a decision the court described as “arbitrary and capricious.”

This is the first time, I believe, Trump has explicitly said he had a windfarm-for-pipeline deal with Hochul, which Hochul's team has previously denied.

Trump: We’re getting held up by the Governor of New York. We made a deal with her. She broke the deal. We made her a deal, we would give her windmills because she likes windmills. I guess we are withdrawing those windmills.

A church in New York City chose to install a geothermal system rather than a new boiler and air conditioning units—a growing trend in urban areas. bit.ly/4taZ6Sw

High costs, crowding and less-than-ideal land conditions make geothermal installations in downstate New York difficult—but not impossible.

Climate victory: NY court rules that State Dept. of Env. Conservation must issue its GHG cap-and-invest rules, as required by NY climate law, by Feb. 6. DEC was ready to issue the rules but Gov. Hochul stopped them. Next question: Will they appeal? bit.ly/47hY8M9

NO TRUMP PIPELINES IN NY! 10 NY members of Congress just called on @GovKathyHochul to reject the dangerous NESE pipeline that would COST New Yorkers BILLIONS OF DOLLARS in increased energy bills. Gov. Hochul, don't cave to Trump! nytimes.com/2025/10/15/nyreg…

Ten members of Congress wrote in a letter to the governor that a gas pipeline proposed for New York Harbor runs counter to the state’s emissions reductions goals.

The #NYSPSC’s bullshit reasoning for green lighting the #NESE pipeline is built on nothing more than a fantasy. Governor Hochul must show Donald Trump who’s in charge by canceling his pet pipeline project.

.@GovKathyHochul I joined water quality & legal experts today to urge you to listen to the science & follow our laws. Don't cave to Trump & approve the NESE fracked gas pipeline in NY & don't direct @NYSDPS to rubber stamp it! Stand up for New Yorkers, our water & health!

Last week, I joined elected officials from across the state to urge @GovKathyHochul to reject Trump's fracked gas pipeline. The NESE pipeline will saddle New Yorkers with higher utility bills, undermine climate mandates, and leave us vulnerable to long-term climate risks.

Actor and environmental activist Mark Ruffalo has a message for Gov. Hochul re: the NESE Pipeline, one of two gas pipelines previously rejected (twice) that Trump wants revived. "Dont' be a patsy... Be the tough governor you say your are."

If you’re looking for what labor means to this election: tonight is about @UAWRegion9A members. You are amazing. We’re making our mark on NYC not because we play politics, but because we organize and we fight instead. That’s why we’re going to make @ZohranKMamdani the next mayor

What's happening in NYC is a blaringly loud message to those in the Dem establishment who still cling to old politics, recite focus-grouped talking points, and are too afraid to say what needs to be said. We have a lot to learn from @ZohranKMamdani and his campaign.
