New York, New York - Today's NYC Climate Week offers a great opportunity to hear from experts on issues from greenwashing to climate misinformation on social media.

Decarbonizing the Maritime Shipping Industry takes a look at what can be done to reduce maritime emissions. The virtual event ships off at 8:00 AM EST.

Then it's back to shore and learning about the problems with marketing not matching action with Hanging greenwashing out to dry. This scrutinizing look at corporations' climate goals, claims, and plans starts at 8:45 AM EST.

This event is particularly interesting given that one Climate Week sponsor is Bank of America, which invested $42.1 billion in the fossil fuel industry in 2020. Will this dirty laundry be part of the wash cycle?

After that, put the pedal to the metal with The Race to Zero-Emitting Vehicles. President Biden set 2030 as the finish line for electrifying transportation in the US, and this virtual event looks at what it would take to reach the checkered flag. Start your engines at 9:00 AM EST.

Take a moment to pump the social media brakes, and tune in to Combatting Climate Disinformation on Social Media at 9:00 AM EST to get insight into what leads to misleading or false information about climate on social media and what to do about it.

These four virtual events are only a slice of the event pie, so if you are looking for another bite, check out the NYC Climate Week event schedule.

The NYC Climate Week runs until September 26.
