The CEI website consists of three main components. The Climate Facts page contains basic information on climate science, climate change, and impacts. The Climate Action page discusses our options for response, both individually and collectively. The Climate Education page contains resources for educators, such as New York State science standards, curricular materials, and data sets.
Recent CEI events:
