Okay guys! Finally a way to really feel connected to the environment while living in NY City. This week, hundreds of government and business leaders from around the world will come together for a series of high-level meetings and events focused on the most urgent issue of our time: CLIMATE CHANGE.
Taking place just seventy days before the UN Climate Change Conference, Climate Week NY°C will provide a platform for business, government and citizens to demonstrate their support for world leaders to secure a global deal in Copenhagen. Every day there are events to join in on. Here at GreenJAR.net we will be posting events for each day but feel free to learn more about NYC Climate Week HERE.
