During COP30, Governor Newsom highlights subnational climate action as the defining economic opportunity of the 21st Century, while Trump sleeps

Today, Governor Gavin Newsom kicked off his official trip in Brazil by engaging in discussions on climate, emphasizing that climate action is one of the greatest economic opportunities of this century. In a fireside chat at the Milken Institute Global Investors’ Symposium with CEO Rich Ditizio, the Governor urged the world’s top financial and business leaders to look to California as proof that investments in clean energy and innovation are a win-win-win for economic growth, communities, and the health of the planet.

After the discussion, the Governor convened a roundtable in partnership with the Milken Institute and with support from Amcham Brasil. Leading climate investors and private-sector partners joined to deepen partnerships on clean energy, sustainable manufacturing, and economic growth in California and across the Americas.

While Donald Trump is handing the future to China, California is proving that climate action, business growth, supporting workers, and good-paying jobs go hand in hand. We’re not turning backwards to the failed policies of the past — California is fighting for a clean-energy future, even as President Trump bends the knee to his Gulf State patrons and takes a nap as the world burns.

This is a governor who is forcing Comrades in the People’s Republik Of California into EVs. Or buses. Bikes. Increasing consumer prices by requiring EV trucks and “green” energy. Suing fossil fuels companies. All while

And, don’t forget taking a fossil fueled vehicle from the airport to the COP30 conference center down a road created by cutting down lots and lots of trees, along with 40,000 other Warmists.

More crazy below the fold

Good grief
