New York Climate Week

The United Nations General Assembly is holding its annual 'High-level Week' in New York, bringing together heads of state and government for speeches and diplomacy at the start of the assembly session. Leaders typically use the gathering to address global conflicts, climate change and development priorities, and it remains one of the largest annual diplomatic events in the world, drawing heavy media and security attention.

Climate Week NYC is underway, bringing together governments, companies and campaigners in New York to discuss emissions cuts and climate finance ahead of the UN General Assembly. The Wall Street Journal's climate newsletter also examines a possible silver lining to the recent surge in borrowing costs, suggesting higher rates could push firms toward more efficient, lower-carbon investment decisions.
