California Gov. Gavin Newsom met with world and business leaders in New York to promote climate action and clean energy while attending events surrounding the UN General Assembly and New York Climate Week.
Newsom accused President Donald Trump of abandoning federal responsibility on climate policy, according to ABC News. He presented California as continuing to work with international and business partners on efforts to address climate change and expand clean energy.
In an interview Wednesday with The Guardian and Covering Climate Now, Newsom also criticized fellow Democrats for avoiding the issue, describing their approach as “climate hushing.” He said Democratic politicians often do not discuss climate change because “they don’t know how to talk about it.” Newsom argued that the party should connect climate-related disruptions to household economic concerns and other “kitchen table” issues.
Newsom also discussed national politics, predicting Donald Trump’s downfall and saying he expects Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez to run for president in 2028, The Guardian reported. His comments came as he used his New York appearances to press for more prominent political discussion of climate policy.
