Power struggle
Article Abstract:
Arnold Schwarzenegger, the California governor, called for the state to cut down its greenhouse-gas emissions to 80% of 1990 levels by 2050 and helping him to accomplish this is a team of state energy-conservation experts. The state's electricity use per capita presently is the lowest in the nation at 6,800 kilo-watt-hours and the strategies that helped California achieve those conservation goals that might help it in its greenhouse-gas cuts.
