SUNY Stony Brook University has been tapped to operate a new $700 million climate change-focused research, education and jobs center slated for an undeveloped section of Governors Island, Mayor Eric Adams announced on Monday.
As part of the city’s efforts to combat climate change, the 400,000-square-foot hub, which will be run by the newly formed “New York Climate Exchange,” promises to offer a broad swath of green education and workforce training programming, according to the mayor’s office.
“This is where we will protect our cities air and water,” he added. “And this is where we will train thousands of students for the next wave of green jobs.” “We will come here to learn and find both solutions,” Adams said. “The New York Climate Exchange won’t just be good for the climate, it is also going to be good for our economic stability. Creating thousands of clean, green and union jobs. And employing a target of more than one-third minority and women-owned business construction contractors.”
Trust for Governors Island President and CEO Clare Newman said the campus itself will exemplify sustainable design that’ll have little to no negative effect on the environment.
