#142: Climate Week 2009 (Friday, September 18)

Next week (September 21-25) is Global Climate Week. Throughout the week, synchronized activities will take place in more than 100 cities to urge world leaders to seal a fair and effective climate agreement at the UN Conference on Climate Change in Copenhagen this December.

Also during the week of September 20th, hundreds of government and business leaders from around the world will converge upon New York City for a series of high-level meetings and events on climate change in advance of the Copenhagen meeting. As a result, NYC is also hosting its own Climate Week (September 20 - 26) to draw attention to the meetings.

If you're in NYC, here's a host of events you can participate in:
