VIEW PROGRAM SCHEDULE

Even in the grips of this devastating pandemic, climate change is our most pressing existential threat. This is not a problem for the next generation to solve. If we do not take responsible climate action now, our existence will continue to be severely compromised and the next generation will be robbed of the opportunity to live in a sustainably balanced environment. Through The Nest Summit, we are thrilled to convene the nation’s top thought-leaders from business, government and research to show how today’s successful climate programs, policies and initiatives will deliver a sustainable future, tomorrow.

We are really excited to partner with The Nest Summit as an official partner of Climate Week NYC. As the world grapples with a tapestry of challenges, all of which threaten the most vulnerable members of society the hardest, there has never been a more important time to engage with each other so that we can build a better future. Following on from the success of 2019, the Javits Center, with its commitment to innovation, sustainability and climate action, is the ideal location to host the such a central part of the biggest Climate Week on earth, and indeed the biggest climate summit to take place globally in 2020. This twelfth annual Climate Week NYC, running in collaboration with the United Nations General Assembly, will be the most critical, inclusive and globally focused week in our history. The Nest Summit is a vital part of our mission to inspire meaningful change both in New York, and around the world.

As an iconic venue with the largest green roof in New York State, we are honored to host The Nest Summit during Climate Week NYC. The innovative environmental measures we have implemented at the Javits Center has shown the meaningful impact of sustainability on our entire community, an impact on those with wings and on those without. As we begin construction on the largest rooftop solar array in New York City, this is the perfect setting to champion the importance of climate action and demonstrate how buildings and corporations can build a better world for all of us.
