Schwarzenegger Signs Global Warming Bill

Man, is this a sign of the changing times. The chap who helped make the Hummer an American icon has carried-off a feat of political contortion worthy of a circus performer. Where once he would possibly have made fun of such 'girly-man' concerns, it would appear that the Climate Change issue is finally getting through to even the most hardened of hearts. Thank God.
He's signed into a law a bill which:
'...imposes a first-in-the-nation emissions cap on utilities, refineries and manufacturing plants in a bid to curb the gases that scientists blame for warming the Earth. Two years ago, a state board adopted tight regulations on automobile tailpipe emissions, an initiative that is being challenged in federal court by automakers.'

I'm a bit schocked by this...
I was watching Enron - Smartest Guys In The Room at the weekend and there was meeting between Schwarzenegger [pre governor] and the head honchos of Enron. Just before they started gouging California for Energy prices which in turn almost bankrupted the state. I would have thought he was pretty much owned by the oil companies and utility companies.

It'll be a brave man that'll attempt to regulate my tailpipe emissions.

Many folks believe ethanol in California fuel increases oil use and profit
