  NY Governor Announces 'Climate' Jobs Initiative with Cornell
  New York Governor Andrew M. Cuomo earlier this month announced the Clean Climate Careers initiative. The initiative is a multi-pronged strategy to grow New York's emerging clean energy economy and prepare the workforce for the long-term careers associated with this industry. In partnership with the ILR School's Worker Institute at Cornell University and Climate Jobs NY, this initiative focuses on accelerating energy efficiency and renewable energy growth to make New York a magnet for new energy technologies and creating 40,000 new, good-paying clean energy jobs by 2020.
