The 12th Annual Climate Week NYC


The Largest Climate Summit of the year, kicks off in New York in just a few days.

Taking place alongside the United Nations General Assembly, The Climate Group will host the Twelfth-Annual Climate Week NYC on September 21st-27th,

This year’s Event focuses on making a Transition to a Net-Zero Carbon Emissions Future that Prioritizes Solutions for Communities that have historically been overburdened by Pollution.

In New York, the Transportation Sector generates One-Third of Emissions and Disproportionately harms Low-Income Neighborhoods and Communities of Color. That’s why the Summit is singling out the Transportation Sector and seeking climate Justice this Climate Week.

Many of the same New Yorkers who suffer from Pollution and Poor Air Quality also lack Access to Environmentally Friendly Transportation, from Transit Deserts far from Subway, Buses, and Trains, to Bikeshare Programs.

Not only is it past time for Elected Officials to Address this Injustice, but Action on this Issue is also Essential to Cut Emissions and Fight Climate Change.

The Tools to Significantly Reduce Emissions already Exist. That’s why we must work to Secure Funding for some of the most Effective Tools that we have, including Public Transit Agencies, which have been hit Hard by the COVID-19 Crisis.

Now at the Javits Center, the Nation’s largest Green Venue, The Nest Summit will help Expand this Mission and become a Prime Destination during Climate Week NYC, broadening Climate Awareness and Action. The Nest Summit 2020 Program will Host the Companies, Visionary Researchers, and Influential Policy-Makers that are Advancing Sustainability in the United States and will be Broadcast on the Climate Group’s Open Media Channels, as well as hitting the Airwaves with Select Media Partners.
