When he ran for office, the environment was clearly not a high priority for him. Now, after Schwarzenegger signed the California Global Warming Solutions Act last fall, California has become the first state to mandate greenhouse-gas reductions at factories, utilities, refineries and other industrial sites.

Sierra Club California attorney Bill Magavern characterizes this as “the most important global warming legislation in the country.” Schwarzenegger has continued his environmental crusade throughout this year. Although he is no stranger to political controversy, one of our panelists may have summed him up best by saying, “I do wonder about Arnold Schwarzenegger, however he is undeniably a proponent of the environment.”
