Hypocrisy Alert: Governor Newsom's Climate Change Double Standard

California Governor Gavin Newsom's recent decision to relocate from Sacramento to Marin County may seem like a personal choice, but it speaks volumes about his commitment – or lack thereof – to fighting climate change. While lecturing Californians to reduce their carbon footprint by cutting back on driving, Newsom himself is set to log many more miles behind the wheel.

This glaring hypocrisy was thrown into sharp relief last week, as frustrated local leaders vented their concerns over the feasibility of achieving the state's ambitious goal of slashing vehicular travel by a third. At a gathering of the Sacramento Area Council of Governments (SACOG), councilmembers sounded off on the sheer impracticality of such demands.

"We're not going to meet the goals," declared Citrus Heights Councilman Tim Schaeffer bluntly. Meanwhile, Marysville Mayor Chris Branscomb condemned these "policies of ruination."

Meanwhile, Placer County Supervisor Suzanne Jones astutely observed that marketing these drastic changes to the general public should precede enforcement efforts: "You need to get [the people] to buy in first. It'll make our lives a lot easier."

But what exactly can citizens expect from their leader? As Deputy Secretary Darwin Mooasvi of the California State Transportation Agency put it, "climate change impacts are here" – yet little concrete action seems forthcoming. Instead, plans abound, including an ill-conceived proposal to slash statewide vehicle usage rates dramatically within the next few decades.

Backtracking further still, consider Newsom's very own commute to the capitol building. Unlike his environmentally-conscious predecessor, Jerry Brown, who often walked to work, our current chief executive prefers lengthy drives while mandating reduced mileage targets elsewhere. How telling indeed!
