New York City Mayor Eric Adams pushed back against criticism of his administration’s response to the dangerously poor air quality spurred by the Canadian wildfires, as elected leaders accused him of acting too slowly and not communicating effectively.
During the press conference, Adams seemed to place blame on “unpredictable weather patterns” created by climate change. He said that he is part of a small group of mayors – that includes Bill de Blasio and Michael Bloomberg – who have had to deal with the climate issue.
“When you communicate to New Yorkers, you use every single medium available to you,” she said. “Social media is not enough. It is the floor.”“We needed to have a playbook,” he said earlier this week, adding that city officials “scrambled to get information up.” “[Lander] has not gone to Washington, D.C. and fought on behalf of New Yorkers to get their fair share,” Adams said.
