Governor Schwarzenegger will share his vision of how California can remain a leader in the fight against climate change
Keeping California Cool
Arnold Schwarzenegger, Governor of California
In signing a landmark climate change law two years ago, Governor Schwarzenegger put California ahead of the parade to a low-carbon economy. "The global warming debate is over," he declared. Public awareness has surged since then but most of the hard work still lies ahead. How will California meet its goal of reducing emissions of greenhouse gases 25 percent by 2020? Will offshore oil drilling be resumed? Who will pay for the transition to sustainable energy? Will California's energy and environmental laws become part of a national plan under a new president? The governor will provide an update and his vision of the road ahead.
