Climate change is a health emergency, particularly in New York City, where extreme inequality and geography susceptible to rising sea levels and extreme weather are a reality. NYSNA is part of Climate Jobs NY, a union-led coalition that seeks proactive solutions to the climate crisis. A new report, Climate for Change: A Climate Jobs Roadmap for New York City, proposes bold policy solutions that will deliver significant reductions in emissions and pollution, high-quality jobs, and investment in frontline communities that have suffered most from environmental injustices and historic inequities. Check out the report online.
