What is Climate Week NYC?
Climate Week NYC is the biggest annual climate event of its kind, with leaders from the world of business, tech, politics, academia, and civil society. It joins the forces of inspiring frontrunners that have the means, the scale and the power to drive the transition forward and turn those who are not yet going fast enough into action takers.
At the same time, Climate Week NYC is a platform for over 600 events across New York City, set up by people and organizations that want to push the needle on climate. That makes Climate Week NYC the event that drives climate action by those at the very top of business and politics, but also by communities, artists and activists, bound by the same message: It’s Time.
We’re putting inspiring businesses and governments that are driving the momentum front and center. We’re driving the transition and convincing hesitant decision makers and climate leaders to start taking action by inspiring them, and showing what can be achieved.
