0:53Now PlayingCalifornia Gov. Gavin Newsom says wildfires raging in his state should give pause to anyone who denies climate change.
Newsom spoke from a forest near California's Central Coast after visiting a nearby Red Cross evacuation center.
More than two dozen major wildfires were blazing across California, blanketing cities and towns in smoke and putting tens of thousands of people under evacuation orders.
Newsom recorded the video after choosing to scrap the pre-recorded video he originally recoded.
"I confess this is not where I expected to be speaking here tonight," he said in a video recorded on a cell phone.
He added, "if you are in denial about climate change, come to California."
Newsom criticized President Donald Trump for working to roll back vehicle emission standards meant to curb climate change.
