On November 8, stand up for New York’s healthy future — by voting YES for the Clean Water, Clean Air, and Green Jobs Environmental Bond Act.

The $4.2 billion Bond Act is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to:

  • Protect drinking water
  • Create new parks and trails offering recreation
  • Make communities more resilient to flooding and other climate impacts
  • Conserve food-producing farms, and
  • Preserve habitats essential for sustaining human health and agricultural productivity

The Peconic Land Trust supports this measure and sees it as an opportunity to invest in our environment. For Long Island, the Bond Act will provide funding to conserve family farms, improve habitat for birds, fish, and other wildlife, and reduce local climate risks. Statewide, the Bond Act will support nearly 100,000 good, local, and family sustaining jobs.
