Contributing sentiments towards policy:

54% : John Howard, a former Public Service Commission chairman, warned last year that implementing the Climate Leadership and Community Protection Act (i.e., the Cuomo-Hochul "Green New Deal" plan) would cost New Yorkers "hundreds of billions" in higher energy bills -- upward of $300 billion.Utility bills are already rising just in the first stages; the pain will only grow every year, even as the state falls ever farther behind its targets.
51% : The aim is for those now relying on oil or gas for heat to install electric heat while weatherizing buildings -- but the upfront costs of that are huge, so many will opt for cheaper electric furnaces and no weatherization, guaranteeing huge monthly electric bills.
47% : And it's far less energy-efficient to generate power far from where it's to be used, then transmit it long distances, than to burn gas or oil right on-site.
18% : And plans for non-carbon electric generation are a mess, too, so it'll be blackouts and no heat in winter unless New York keeps relying on oil and gas to generate power -- so emissions might well wind up rising.
