Newsweek is honored to invite you to Pillars of the Green Transition Conference on September 24th at our headquarters in One World Trade Center, New York, as part of Climate Week 2025.

This year marks the tenth anniversary of the Paris Agreement, a key moment in the fight against climate change. Many climate technologies and policies are reaching maturity and scaling up, while new ESG reporting rules are coming into effect. At the same time, smart technologies are promising new paths to radically streamline established industries.

Join us at Climate Week NYC for an interactive program of discussion, inspiration and connection. High-level panels and sector-specific case studies from around the world will help you learn how industry leaders in your field are investing and adapting to stay ahead

Expanding Possibilities with Energy Storage

Grid scale batteries and other means to store energy are quickly transforming our energy landscape. Storage allows power providers to better use intermittent renewable energy sources and improve grid resilience, while offering industrial energy consumers opportunities for on-site power management. Our panelists will explain the latest emerging technology and potential applications of energy storage to grow power supply while cutting emissions.

Growing Climate Solutions in Food Systems

Food systems play a major role in meeting the climate challenge. The people who grow, process, package and deliver our food are managing climate-driven impacts while developing new ways to cut emissions and draw down carbon from the atmosphere. Our panel explores how climate-smart agriculture, sustainable packaging and greener supply chains are growing new climate solutions.
