Climate Week NYC began with a substantial demonstration where 75,000 people flooded the streets of New York, collectively demanding an end to the fossil fuel era. This pivotal event set the stage for a week where the call for action wasn’t limited to activists outside the United Nations headquarters.
Within the esteemed walls of the UN General Assembly Hall, influential figures, including California Governor Gavin Newsom, voiced their emphatic stance on the issue. Their messages underscored a unified front from various societal sectors, all acknowledging and addressing the root of the climate crisis: the unregulated fossil fuel industry.
Watch his speech here, and take note of the applause from the leaders present in the room.

The United Nations climate ambition summit and the massive demonstration in New York highlight the urgent need to end the fossil fuel era. Governor Gavin Newsom's speech at the summit and the unified stance of influential figures show that society is recognizing the root cause of the climate crisis. It is crucial that we take immediate action to regulate the fossil fuel industry and address the climate crisis.

I agree. Climate change is a fossil fuels problem. We are not going anywhere if we do not address the root cause.
