it always seems like "city idiots" who have NO IDEA what is really happening with the "environement" are the ones who complain the most...suggestions:

1) move out of the city
2) learn to hunt, trap, fish
3) quit whining.

Oh never mind. these types dont even have enough balls to even try the above.

Schwarzenegger tops Bush in survey on environment

KEEPING DISTANCE FROM PRESIDENT MAY BE ADVANTAGE

By Paul Rogers

Mercury News


Californians have turned increasingly negative toward President Bush's handling of environmental issues, and give higher marks to Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger, a fellow Republican, according to a new poll released today.

Overall, 53 percent of California residents said they disapprove of the president's views on the environment, with just 32 percent saying they approve. Only half as many Californians, 27 percent, say they disapprove of Schwarzenegger's handling of environmental issues, while 39 percent approve.

The poll by the Public Policy Institute of California, a non-partisan research center in San Francisco, surveyed 2,505 California residents by telephone between June 30 and July 14. With interviews conducted in five languages, it is among the largest statewide environmental surveys ever.

``Californians are looking to the state for environmental leadership,'' said Mark Baldassare, research director for the institute.

``It will be interesting to see how Arnold Schwarzenegger handles differences he might have with the White House. Our findings suggest the more he leans toward support of the president, the more support he will lose from independents and Democrats who are now viewing him favorably.''

Bush has clashed with California leaders on a number of environmental topics in recent years, including offshore oil drilling, increased logging in the Sierra Nevada, global warming and air pollution.
