Timed for the start of Climate Week that takes place from next week in New York, Progress is a video from CDP that informs and celebrates cities acting on the environment. The video follows the commitment of 7,000 city mayors to tackle climate change, and identifies those cities creating a new low carbon future from London to Chicago, Adelaide and Rio de Janeiro.

Kyra Appleby, Head of CDP Cities notes: ‘From investment in renewable energy; low carbon transport; green spaces and more, we’re seeing hundreds of cities transitioning to a new sustainable economy. Cities are in action and creating good jobs, improving public health, boosting tourism and attracting the innovative industries of the future. A tipping point is emerging, as cities increasingly recognize sustainability as essential to not only for tackling climate change, but making more attractive places to live and work. Together, we’re making progress.’
