The climate crisis is one of the greatest risks facing New York City. As an agency tasked with identifying and confronting risks to NYC’s government and residents, the Comptroller’s Office is committed to advancing a just transition toward a more equitable, low-carbon, and resilient city. Tackling the climate crisis requires collective action by governments, individuals, and companies, from installing new solar panels to divesting from fossil fuels to building more resilient infrastructure.
The NYC Climate Dashboard tracks our city’s progress in meeting our climate goals by assessing how effectively the city is reducing our carbon emissions and how prepared our neighborhoods are for the impacts of climate change. Each section of the dashboard includes key climate indicators, along with data on city policies and programs designed to improve those outcomes.
We want your feedback! Please let us know what other climate data you’d like to see in this dashboard in the future.
