Climate Week NY°C: Making a Difference
Image source: climateweeknyc.org
This week marks New York City’s Climate Week. From September 20 – 26, government and business leaders will be convening in the Big Apple for meetings and events, all focusing on one big issue: climate change. This event is taking place exactly 70 days before the UN Climate Change Conference that is to be held in Copenhagen, Denmark. Citizens will also be able to show their support of the fight against climate change as well.
Events that are being held during Climate Week NY°C include things like: Urban Green Expo, Brooklyn Rebuilds/Brooklyn Cares Day, Panel Discussion on “Solar in the Developing World”, and the HSBC Climate Partnership Local Volunteering Project.
If you want to help out with this event, you can do a number of things like: volunteer, Tweet all about it (using the #climateweeknyc tag), post info on Facebook or Myspace; and most importantly, attend the event and encourage your friends and family to do the same. Come out to New York City this week and help the people make a positive difference in the fight against climate change.

Thanks for the info. They really need a climate week in that place. It’s an amazing city, and a global center, but it is also monumentally dirty.
