or Climate Collaborative, or HCC, a joint initiative with the Trust for Governors Island and Brooklyn Navy Yard Development Corporation.
At Sunset Park at the Brooklyn Navy Yard and Governors Island, the HCC is supporting emerging businesses and companies, helping existing businesses scale, preparing New Yorkers for good paying jobs, and training our students for the future jobs in the green economy.
The Green Economy Action Plan goes far beyond education and job training.
It also lays out how we can deliver more sustainable infrastructure for New Yorkers.
Today, transportation makes up about 25% of New York City's emissions.
At EDC, we are building public goods for the public good, working to deliver more sustainable alternatives in transportation.
That not only make our city more livable, but deliver good paying jobs for working people.
New York City has always been a maritime city, and we are charting a new course for our economic future, using our historic waterways to create sustainable infrastructure that moves goods off the streets and onto our waterways, reducing pollution and making our city cleaner, healthier, and more sustainable.
