The Terminator vs. Big Oil

The article I chose was about our governor/terminator a.k.a Arnold Schwarzenegger, who is upset with the oil companies that are not listening to him. First of all, California is voting to get rid of A.B 32 which is
"California’s Global Warming Solutions Act of 2006". California will vote on Prop 23 to abolish this for some reason. Schwarzenegger says that the oil companies are trying to get rid of A.B 23 already because, according to Arnold, "They’re not interested in our environment; they are only interested in greed and filling their pockets with more money."

In Climate Denial, Again

I chose this article because the previous article got me more interested in global warming than the Terminator. I don't understand why people are preaching that global warming is not true and that we are wasting our time. First of all, it's obviously happening, it's getting more and more ridiculously hot; and second of all, why should we stop helping our planet out? We're not hurting anyone, it's only helping out planet. It just seems really dumb to want to stop treating our planet better.
