Changing Course for a Healthy Climate

We are approaching two tipping points: one in the climate crisis, the other in the growth of an exciting movement to implement solutions at the necessary scale. Sustainable Hudson Valley is all in to create a thriving, renewably powered, climate-safe region by working with the creativity that is present in every community.

Sustainable Hudson Valley’s mission is to speed up, scale up, jazz up and leverage progress against climate change, creating communities where people and nature thrive. With a wide network of partners, we are:
  • leading the development and implementation of a regional climate action strategy;
  • overcoming barriers to the rapid scale-up of renewable energy and clean transportation;
  • helping communities plan for resilience in ways that promote health, self-reliance and connection.

We know what to do!

We need “rapid, far-reaching and unprecedented change” according to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. COP26 brought nations together and generated new commitments which must be built on.   Project Drawdown identifies the top 100 climate solutions by impact and return on investment, providing an action manual that has been called a “100 point jobs program.” Research has also outlined a road map for cutting emissions in half every ten years.  There is an emerging “solutions culture” and movement that is rapidly creating tools and partnerships through such organizations as Regeneration, the Years Project and Catching Carbon .

New York’s Climate Leadership and Community Protection Act is an invitation to creative response for us all. Check out the facts here! The Hudson Valley is unique for its levels of organization among environmental and economic innovators. Sustainable Hudson Valley’s vision is to engage these networks in a “just do it” spirit through a collaborative Regional Climate Action Roadmap and Toolkit, which will tackle projects in renewable energy, transportation, water restoration, land conservation, and the transition towards a circular economy.
