SAUSALITO, CA, UNITED STATES, 20th Sept 2024 Janelle Kellman, a leading advocate for climate resilience and candidate for Lieutenant Governor of California, will headline three high-profile panels at New York Climate Week.
Kellman’s discussions will focus on integrating climate action with economic policies in the Golden State, which has the world’s fifth-largest economy.
As the founder of the Center for Sea Rise Solutions and an environmental attorney, Kellman has been at the forefront of promoting policies that address the impacts of climate change on coastal communities. At New York Climate Week, she will participate in:

“Climate change isn’t a future threat—it’s here. Addressing it through climate resilience is a catalyst for job creation, innovation, and sustainable economic growth,” said Kellman. “I’m excited to share how California is leading the way in integrating these priorities, and to discuss innovative solutions that make us even stronger.”
This event marks a significant expansion of Kellman’s campaign as she continues to emphasize the importance of integrating climate action with economic policies in California and reasserting America’s role as a global environmental innovator.
