Wonderful trip, narrator / guide was fantastic, so knowledgeable and personable. It was a long trip and I could have stayed on and done it all again, so interesting. The boat is beautiful and comfortable. Great way to see New York from a different perspective

The best way to understand the many facets of climate change in New York City is by traveling along its waterways! Step aboard a classic 1920s-style yacht for the AIANY Climate Change Tour: Resiliency, Sustainable Architecture and the Future of NYC and learn about how climate change is affecting our city and people, and the actions NYC is taking to mitigate pending threats and reduce its carbon footprint. This tour will address the pressing need for sustainable design and greater resiliency, delving into how New York City is reducing fossil fuel consumption, strengthening its natural habitats, and reimagining its transportation infrastructure. The tour will also explore the importance of the environmental justice movement in New York City.
