  • Climate Justice in NYC: Strategies for Equitable Climate Adaptation
    2025/04/14
    Summary In this episode, SPR associate Michael Hannaman and Professor Sheila R. Foster of Columbia University’s Climate School discuss climate resiliency and adaptation efforts in New York City, with an emphasis on climate justice and community engagement efforts. The conversation explores the dimensions of climate justice, and the roles of data and of local expertise in understanding and addressing climate vulnerabilities. The discussion also touches on the challenge of, and potential solutions to, climate gentrification, and the importance of solutions like distributed energy. In a moment where federal funding and federal support for climate action is uncertain, Professor Foster remains optimistic about state and local leadership in ongoing climate resiliency efforts.
