Mayor Eric Adams announced that New York City will host the 2025 Global Climate Summit, bringing world leaders, activists, and scientists to the city for a week-long conference on addressing the climate crisis. The summit will take place at the Javits Center, with satellite events planned across the five boroughs.
“This is an opportunity for New York to lead on the world stage,” said Mayor Adams. “The climate crisis demands urgent action, and this summit will drive solutions.”
Organizers hope the event will showcase New York’s own sustainability efforts while fostering international collaboration. Critics have emphasized the need for tangible outcomes rather than symbolic gestures.
Preparations are already underway, with city officials promising to prioritize community engagement and ensure the summit benefits local residents.
