Governor Cuomo issued the following statement:
"The White House's reckless decision to
withdraw from the Paris Accord has devastating repercussions not only
for the United States, but for our planet. This administration is
abdicating its leadership and taking a backseat to other countries in
the global fight against climate change. New York State is committed to
meeting the standards set forth in the Paris Accord regardless of
Washington's irresponsible actions. We will not ignore the science and
reality of climate change, which is why I am also signing an Executive
Order confirming New York's leadership role in protecting our citizens,
our environment, and our planet."
