Zachary Carter, corporation counsel of the City of New York, talks about the city's climate lawsuit against the five biggest oil companies. Then, New York City Comptroller Scott Stringer talks about the city's plan to divest its pension funds from fossil fuels.
On the city's plan to divest city pension fund investments from fossil fuel producers, @NYCComptroller says fossil fuel companies "are the past; we want to look at renewables...that's the future."
