WRI Events at Climate Week NYC
******************************
WRI is working to transform the major systems that affect people, nature and the climate — from the ways we produce and use food and energy to how we design and manage cities. During Climate Week NYC, we will be focusing on *a few key priorities* : creating climate-ready cities; cutting food waste and shifting to cool food; protecting vital forests and land; building momentum for stronger country climate commitments and finance outcomes; and building a sustainable ocean economy.
Please join World Resources Institute's events at Climate Week NYC, in person or online. Visit our *Climate Week NYC events page ( [link removed] )* to explore the full schedule and read on to learn about some of the key opportunities. We hope you'll join us!
