This week, international leaders from business and government converge in New York City for the 15th annual Climate Week NYC summit. Held in parallel to the United Nations General Assembly, Climate Week NYC showcases climate action spanning from global to local efforts.
New York State not only plays host to Climate Week NYC but, given its recently-adopted Climate Action Plan, can also credibly call itself a global leader on climate. The state’s ambitious plan targets net-zero emissions by 2050, a 40% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions by 2030 and an ambitious target of 70% renewable energy powering the Empire State by 2030.
