SUMMARY:The Right to Cooling: Air Conditioning and Affordability in New York City
DESCRIPTION:Every summer\, approximately 500 New Yorkers die prematurely due to extreme heat. As a changing climate leads to hotter summers\, this problem will only be exacerbated. But about 10% of NYC residents don’t have air conditioning in their home. To address this problem\, in 2025 the New York City Council passed the Cool Homes for All Act\, requiring landlords to provide cooling systems for tenants at their request. In this panel\, we will discuss how to address concerns about public health\, affordability\, and technical feasibility as the city plans to implement the law.  \nThis event is in-person only and is open to the general public. Advanced registration is required. Register HERE. \nPROGRAM \nPANELISTS: \nJennifer Leone\, Assistant Commissioner\, Chief Sustainability Officer\, New York City Department of Housing Preservation & Development  \nLincoln Restler\, New York City Council Member\, Sponsor of Cool Homes for All Act  \nCaleb Smith\, New York City Policy Manager\, WE ACT for Environmental Justice \nMODERATOR: Christine Billy\, Executive Director\, Guarini Center on Environmental\, Energy and Land Use Law\, NYU School of Law \nCLE: New York CLE credit for the event is pending.
