When Arnold (Governor) Schwarzenegger tells you to step up on the environment you might want to listen. Sure he's made a habit of squandering the precious natural resources our planet has to offer: Petroleum for his ex-military trucks, Money from my pocket to see his craptacular movies where he fights Columbian terrorists, cybernetic organisms, or (sigh..) the devil, Kennedys to participate in his campaign for the introduction of new half-Austrian half-Waspy children (ok technically her last name is Shriver, but she is a Wasp, or at least I think she is, I'm not sure what a "Wasp" actually is). But now is the time to listen to his remarks on the environment cause he has a fuel-cell Humvee! Unfortunately it probably cost millions of dollars to develop and the only time he's driven it was to and from the press conference to announce its creation.

Well have no fear as Arnold is now out-sourcing American anger towards Global Warming, all the way to the U.N., also known as that part of New York where diplomats always double-park their European imports (Peugeot Limousine anyone?). His main focus seems to be creating a new international emissions treaty to replace Kyoto. Well good luck getting the US to pass that one. An environmental treaty seems to be the only thing a president named Bush is able to pull out of (the one with the HW in the middle, not the other one who has yet to pull out of anything, well maybe his wife because maybe she doesn't believe in birth control, but I digress). That treaty only called for carbon emissions to be reduced by 5% in 22 years! Of course, at the time it was thought that industrialized nations were being punished unfairly, whilst poorer ones were free to pollute. Of course America creates more pollution than those poor countries consisting of 4x the population.

As the speech went on Schwarzenegger couldn't help but talk about how great California was at reducing emissions, which really helps people in the rest of the country get behind the state. The guy who played a pregnant man in a movie is lauding the awesomeness of reducing emissions. I want to know why the governor never espouses the more fantastic aspects of California, like its legalization of cannabis! Now thats a topic that would create a stir in the U.N. Remember that you need not only prevent global warming but also what seems a natural outcome of all this political posturing... global buzzkilling, something none of us truly wants.
