    Hub Culture's Edie Lush interviews California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger in Copenhagen

     

    CNN PRODUCER NOTE     edielush is in Copenhagen to cover the COP 15 climate change summit.
    - davidw, CNN iReport producer

    Hub Culture's Edie Lush interviews California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger in Hub Culture's Pavilion in Copenhagen.

     

    This is the ONLY international interview that the Governor did during his trip to Copenhagen.

     

    Schwarzenegger says that although we need a global deal on Climate Change, sub national groups like California are already light years ahead creating a green economy. In California, through tax incentives, cities are competing to attract green companies because of the job growth it brings. Obama needs to show the leadership already being demonstrated on the west coast - now is the time and now is the opportunity.  He could simply copy some of the initiatives coming out of California to encourage the growth of green jobs. What works in California could work for the US.
