New York Lt. Gov. Kathy Hochul is poised to take over running the state government after Gov. Andrew Cuomo resigned Tuesday following a report from the state's attorney general that alleged he sexually harassed multiple women, including employees, and violated state and federal law.
...
After briefly working as a lobbyist as vice president for government relations at M&T Bank, Hochul was selected by Cuomo in 2014 as his running mate in his campaign for re-election, replacing retiring Lt. Gov. Robert Duffy. Hochul was seen as a boost to the ticket given her roots in Erie County, which Cuomo lost in 2010.
...
Cuomo had been criticized by some as underutilizing Hochul, appearing uninterested in sharing responsibilities or power with her even in a time of crisis. Hochul was included in only one of Cuomo's famous daily Covid press conferences, and the governor reportedly made no mention of her in his book published last year about leadership during the pandemic.

HIGHLIGHTED COMMENTS " No - I think there is no doubt climate is changing, and think it is likely humans have had some connection to it. That said, the Earth has been through cycles of warming followed by ice ages for hundreds of millions of years—certainly long before humans came in the scene.
