Climate Week NYC is a platform for all voices working on climate action hosted annually by Climate Group in partnership with the United Nations General Assembly and the City of New York. As a long-time pillar of the conservation community, Audubon is rising to meet the urgency of this moment through the power of birds because what’s good for birds is good for people and the planet. Building upon decades of accomplishments, a strong scientific backbone, and a non-partisan approach, Audubon is focused on delivering tangible outcomes for birds and people at the scale of the challenges we face.
During Climate Week (September 21-28, 2025), Audubon will take part in discussions emphasizing a rigorous, science-based approach to solving the interconnected challenges of climate change and biodiversity loss.
The shift to nature-based regeneration is gaining momentum across the U.S. Meghan Ryan, Audubon's Director of Natural Climate Solutions Strategy, and Matt Maier, Owner of Thousand Hills Lifetime Grazed, will join leaders during the Climate Group's Hub Live session, Our most natural lever – are we ready for a regenerative world?, to highlight the Audubon Conservation Ranching program and its role in advancing nature-based regeneration.
Audubon will lead a Main Stage session at The Nest Climate Campus, an official event partner of Climate Week NYC based at the Javits Center. Audubon experts and panelists will discuss a soon to be released scientific paper on how conservation can provide overlapping benefits for people, climate, and biodiversity. This event is free to attend in-person with registration for a three-day pass to The Nest Climate Campus.
Join scientists at NYC Bird Alliance for guided tours of the Javits Center green roof network, nearly 7 acres of diverse green habitats that support a variety of wildlife. Participants will talk about the Javits Center’s pioneering bird-friendly glass, visit the rooftop Farm, Food Forest, and Pollinator Garden, and explore how these habitats support pollinators, bats, and migratory birds. NYC Bird Alliance’s full roundup of public Climate Week NYC events can be found here.
