California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger intends to sue the federal government for its decision to block California from reducing its greenhouse gas emissions faster than under the presidentâs emissions-reduction plan. The governor, who no longer drives Hummers, stated that “it’s another example of the administration’s failure to treat global warming with the seriousness that it actually demands.â Meanwhile, Henry Waxman (D-CA) has called on the Environmental Protection Agency to âpreserve and produce all documents relating toâ the decision to block Californiaâs efforts to go green.
