When it comes to policy, New York is a climate leader. But living here is freaking expensive. So what does it take to live affordably in NYC and be climate-conscious? How do you pay rent AND invest in an induction stove? How can a home battery help with electric bills? What about heat protections for those who work outdoors? And even if you can swing an EV car, where the heck are you supposed to charge it?? Join Climate One Co-Host Kousha Navidar, in collaboration with Grist, for an engaging, interactive talk show discussing how climate, decarbonization and affordability come together in NYC. We’ll hear from a city official, a grassroots leader, a small business owner, and a Grist reporter about their work to make life better for residents while keeping costs and carbon emissions down. Guests: Louise Yeung, NYC Chief Climate Officer Daphany Rose Sanchez, Executive Director of Kinetic Communities Brooklyn Jake Bittle, Staff Writer at Grist Noah Bernamoff, Co-Owner, Black Seed Bagels Hosted by Kousha Navidar, Climate One Co-Host With Host Support by Rachel Bouton, Senior Manager of Events, Grist
