Climate and Environmental Justice: A Discussion of NYC’s Plans

The growing risks of rising heat, more intense storms, and a history of environmental injustice continue to generate disproportionate climate impacts in communities like Harlem.

What is government doing to address the most important health related issues that arise from our climate crisis? How can community organizations and residents partner with local healthcare partners, businesses, academic organizations, and government to cause real change in policy and outcomes? Learn about the challenge and the opportunities to empower communities to lead the way into a healthier, cleaner, and safer, future
