Jasmine Graham was quoted in The Progressive Magazine:
One way to get existing buildings off of fossil fuels is through performance standards for buildings, explains Jasmine Graham, Energy Justice Policy Manager at New York-based WE ACT for Environmental Justice. These can be based either on energy efficiency or on a building’s total output of greenhouse gasses. Jasmine Graham was quoted in Grist:
Jasmine Graham, energy justice policy manager at WE ACT for Environmental Justice, a group founded in West Harlem, applauded the administration for boosting funding for WAP, but pointed out that energy woes aren’t the only challenges plaguing environmental justice communities. “Residents of these communities tend to live in older, under-maintained housing that often has issues such as mold, lead, and asbestos,” she said. She hopes that the Biden administration will also do more to address these concerns. |
