    Abstract
    This report is the second of three that provides community leaders, inside and outside of local government, with guidance about navigating their climate-action priorities through the gauntlet of challenges created by the COVID-19 pandemic and the ensuing economic crisis. Each report, based on a synthesis of peer-reviewed research, expert interviews, and the analysis of local climate action, address a different topic: 1. More Urgency, Not Less: The COVID-19 Pandemic’s Lessons for Local Climate Leadership (Published June 2020) 2. Climate of Crisis: How Cities Can Use Climate Action to Close the Equity Gap, Drive Economic Recovery, and Improve Public Health (Published September 2020) 3. A Survey of U.S. City Climate Leaders: The Prospects for Climate Action in the COVID-19 Era (October 2020) This work is supported by The Summit Foundation and The Grantham Foundation for the Protection of the Environment.
