🌍 Welcome to another episode of PWGC's Environmental Echo, where we dive deep into environmental policies shaping our future. In today’s episode, Paul Boyce, CEO & President of PW Grosser Consulting, is joined by Alita, Chair of Couch White’s Environmental and Land Use Group. Together, they discuss New York’s Climate Leadership and Community Protection Act (CLCPA) and how its implementation impacts industries, regulatory processes, and communities across the state.

CLCPA is a groundbreaking law requiring New York to transition to carbon-free energy sources. But as we explore in this episode, while the intentions are good, the rollout has led to confusion, slowdowns, and challenges for businesses, government agencies, and local communities. How will these changes affect industries from mining to healthcare? How will individuals and businesses cope with the electrification demands? Tune in to get expert insights on the hurdles and opportunities presented by this ambitious environmental act.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
