Today, leaders from across the world, as well as leaders from some of the world's top corporations, are gathering in New York City to talk about climate change. The summit is a prelude to talks that'll take place next year in Paris. United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon convened today's summit and "has asked these leaders to bring bold announcements and actions to the summit that will reduce emissions, strengthen climate resilience, and mobilize political will for a meaningful legal agreement in 2015," says the event's webpage.
