Remarkable moonbattery from the governor of California

Governor Schwarzenegger Delivers Speech on the Challenges of Global Warming

And, of course, there is an urgency there, why we've had this meeting, because we want to move the agenda forward as quickly as possible. As a matter of fact, a well-known expert on global warming just said recently that the only important holes left in the science of climate change are whether the affects will be serious or disastrous or catastrophic and whether we will reach that point sooner rather than later.

So, ladies and gentlemen, I don't have to tell you what is going to happen if we don't do something about that. It could be really disastrous consequences here. We are seeing the affects all over the world. We are suffering through bizarre weather shifts in our own regions. Florida Governor Charlie Crist and his neighbors have fought hurricanes that are fiercer than ever before. Here, we in California, we used to have a fire season that was only two months; now fire season is all year long. Our friends from Brazil worry about threats to their rainforest and its precious biodiversity. The Chinese are dealing with unprecedented droughts and its affect on drinking water and food production. And our partners from Indonesia are facing dangers to their cities from rising sea levels and the list goes on and on and on, that we see all over the world.

This is the fact, that fossil fuels were used for decades to build our economies of the industrial nations and they have created unprecedented kind of prosperity all over the world. But now it has become the enemy and now is threatening to destroy all of us.
...
It's all about technology, because we all know that the guilt trip that we have put on people has not worked, to tell them that they should not use the Jacuzzi, or the big, large plasma TV, or to drive with a big SUV, a Hummer or something like that. (Laughter) Or to fly with a plane.

All of those things did not work because the fact of the matter is the people should use a big television set but it should be powered by solar. They should go and sit in the Jacuzzi, in the biggest Jacuzzi in the world but it should be powered by solar. They should fly their airplane whenever they want but it should have maybe a different kind of designed engine so we don't use fossil fuel. Or they should go and stay in their SUVs and in their Hummers but maybe have that Hummer be powered by electric motors or something like that. So it's technology that really needs to be changing, not that we're driving a car or taking a Jacuzzi or any of those things. God forbid we would stop the Jacuzzi. (Laughter)
...
So I want to send you all off after this event is over and give you a challenge and the challenge is -- and that's what I do always to myself -- ask yourself every single day the question, have you done enough to fight global warming? Have you done enough to make sure that we are reducing our output of greenhouse gases? Have you been creative enough? Have you put the spotlight on that issue enough? Have you made this enough of a priority? Ask yourself those questions, because you will see it motivates you every day then to do something about it and not just to make it one of many things that you're dealing with.
