Actor and former California governor, Arnold Schwarzenegger spoke on Sunday at a Munich security conference, introducing a new policy paper, “The Future of Energy.”
Calling climate change, the “issue of our time,” Schwarzenegger reflected on his tenure as governor saying green energy creates jobs and leads to energy independence, according to the Associated Press.
President Barack Obama implemented an action plan in 2013 toward energy independence, calling for further reductions in carbon emissions in cars, trucks, factories, and power plants.
Between 2007 and 2013, U.S. carbon emissions have fallen by 10 percent, the largest drop of any country in the world.
