Schwarzenegger/California in Global Warming Lead

Here is a press release that came my way outlining key points in California's plan to address climate change. In the next two months the state legislature, with the support of Governor Schwarzenegger, are set to enact two new laws that would make it North America's leader in addressing global warming. Key points include: * Strict targets for heavy industry, electric utilities and refineries to cut greenhouse gas emissions by 25% by 2020. * Prohibiting all state utilities from signing long-term contracts with coal fired power plants. Tabled by the Democrat controlled legislature, the laws are key elements in addressing Schwarzeneggers commitment of bringing California to 1990 emission levels by 2020.
