Schwarzenegger NOT An Environmentalist

This is a perfect example of why Governor Schwarzenegger is not the environmentalist that he claims and that the media, including Grist, hold him out to be.  He pays lip service to global climate change by advocating for legislation that won't significantly help because it fails to require any sacrifices from people -- while appointing industry hacks to administrative agencies and  pushing for a road through a roadless area -- and people say, "Oh wow, look how environmentally progressive Schwarzenegger and California are!"  He's a politician, for cryin' out loud!  Look at what he actually does and forget about what he says.

The comments of Grist users reflect the opinions of those individuals only, and do not necessarily reflect the viewpoints of Grist, its staff, its board members, their psychotherapists, or their aestheticians. Got it?
