Remarkably stupid speech from Schwarzenegger

Governor Schwarzenegger Discusses Importance of AB 32 in Weekly Radio Address
Number one, to improve the health of Californians.

Today one in six Central Valley children go to school with an inhaler.

In Southern California, air pollution kills more people than car crashes.

Nationwide 100,000 people die every year because of pollution-related illnesses.

These are human tragedies that laws like AB 32 aim to prevent.

Number two, to keep California’s growing green economy in high gear.
...
The third reason our environmental laws are so important is they fight climate change.

We are already seeing the effects in California, a less reliable water supply, more frequent wildfires, increased coastal and inland flooding and sea level rise.

These threats are real and we cannot sit idly by and just watch them unfold.

We have to do something about it.
