Newsom must be bold leader on climate at UN Glasgow summit | The Sacramento Bee

By Thomas A. Smith

The annual United Nations climate conference is where world leaders go to make a reputation for themselves. For Gov. Gavin Newsom, this year s climate summit couldn t come at a better time.

On the heels of the recall election, Newsom is primed to boldly reassert California s leadership on climate. He ran on a pro-science message contrasting his stance on COVID and the climate crisis with that of his conservative challengers and it worked. The governor defeated the recall attempt by the same 24-point margin that he was elected with in 2018.

Climate-minded voters showed up by the millions for Newsom. And at the 2021 UN Climate Change Conference (COP26) in Glasgow this November, we re expecting him to show up for us.
