Environment Terminator
Talk about a commute!
California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger, whose official place of work is in the Northern California city of Sacramento, reportedly spends nearly every night in his Los Angeles-area mansion.
The distance between the two cities is about 360 miles one way!
The governor uses his own money to pay for his Gulfstream flights, which price out at about $10,000 an hour.
Good thing he earned some major cash as a bodybuilder/actor.
But, the environmental costs are high. Flying TO AND FROM WORK is not very ecologically sound, as our Perezcious readers know!
The governor's staff says he purchases "carbon credits." Such credits are aimed at offsetting the greenhouse gases generated by his flights but do nothing about the particulates and smog-forming compounds released into the air.
The reason the Governator gives for the 'commute'? It's so he can spend time with his family. Admirable but can't the family move up to Sacramento?
Arnold recently made the cover of Newsweek for being 'green'. Looks a little hypocritical to us!

What would anyone expect from a Republician actor?
He's a bit big on the hips. Did he stop working out? Saw him nekkid in Terminator and all I can say is 'what a shame'! I'm going to the gym stat, if the Tuhminahtuh can't defy gravity than I sure can't either.
You know what's hypocritical being fat and gay like you loser boy.

Re: Sarah –
Whore
TENTH PLZ GOD
hey man don't hate on the governator, he's should be president!
He is a great father and isnt making his children move to Sacramento in the middle of school. They have a life in Los Angeles and that is where he wants to keep them to give the family stability. I admire him for that.
MAYBE HE SHOULD USE SOME INCOME TO BUY A CROSS YOUR HEART BRA!!! THAT'S QUITE A RACK! OH SNAP!
Compared to him Im green as a broccoli and I don't even admit I am
Hey, if Al Gore still uses private jets, that excuses anyone who can afford it.
Guess what, he still got a home and family that he wants to be home with. So he'll do what he can do best, fly himself to work and home. Alot of people have to drive and that's just as congested. He's just taking the faster route. He's still a great governor and has earned every last drop of that!!! So leave him alone Perez. I see you are still working on your status in Hollywood and slowly but surely will be doing the same crap these celebs are doing that you post daily on your blogs. So stop hatin!
Wow his hands are really fat…. and his pants are too high….
Pretty crazy he is going green…isn't he the one that invented the Hummer…haha
my God he's fat!
Not any worse then Al Gore, who you idolize for some weird reason.
What about the dye in your hair Perez..every time they wash your head and rinse the bleach you are polluting..you are the Hypocrite. Al Gore is one of the biggest polluters in America. Mr. Carbon Credit. I guess you are just part of that crowd..every time I see Hillary's Cankles,, I puke so I guess that makes me a polluter as well. How many Carbon Credits do you buy for Teddy's Gaseous Wind? and…..I love puppies so don't go there.
Re: ok bitches – a better president than bush fer shur. does seem a little extravagant tho.
He should be fucking ashamed of himself.
Oh fuck you Perez, I suppose you are taking a rickshaw everywhere? Why do all the libs try and tell everyone else what they should do but pay no heed themselves. Sod off.
He looks so old, and look how high his pants are! You can always tell how old a person is because their pants start riding up and up! lol!
global warming is completely overblown. Further, the pro-warming meterologists that claim to completely understand the most complex, chaotic system in existence are full of shit. The true objective, 400+ POLITICALLY INDEPENDENT meteorologists from 40 different countries all agree global warming hasn't even made it past hypothesis, and is far more likely natural climate flux. Keep on flyin' Arnie.
Re: mimi – FAT! he looks to be in fantastic shape as usual. fuck you are dumb.
We don't have a governors mansion in Cali
Who took a bigger ramming as the Guvnor of NJ? Corazine in his car wreck or Jim McGreevy at the Garden State Parkway rest-stops?
this makes me so upset….
when he was running for office didn't he once think about how he was going to be getting home from Sac-Town to L.A…..? UGH makes me sick!
Re: Donna West –
How could it NOT be anybody's business you dumb fuck!
He also drives a hummer. How green.
Just like every other fricken LIB !!
At least he's paying for it. Our esteemed governor in Illinois does it on the taxpayer's dime, 200 or so miles each way.
perez - Al gore flys around on private jets all the time. he also purchases carbon credits. he won a peace prize for his environmental work. why do you say nothing about him and all the libs who fly around on private jets. because arnold is a republican? hypocryte!
With regards to your suggestion that the family move to Sacramento… Have you ever been there? I wouldn't move there either.
WOW he is spending that much money on flying back home every day and on the other hand he has taken away over 11million dollars at each school here in California. Our local district will have to get rid of over 130 teachers. Way to go Arnold
ARNOLD IS A KOOK. HE IS ALSO FUKKING THE ENVIRONMENT BY FAILING TO BACK A PLIGHT AGAINST A PROPOSED TOLL ROAD IN SO CAL THAT IS SUPPORTED BY THE SURFRIDER FOUNDATION AND NEEDS HIS HELP IN ORDER TO SAVE THE TRESTLES SURFING AREA IN SAN CLEMENTE FROM IRREVERSIBLE DAMAGE AND POLLUTION. FUCK YOU ARNOLD - YOU PRETENDED TO BE CONCERNED THEN RE'NIGGED". GO TO HELL.
whats this fug body? and pudgy fingers???????
Quit picking on Arnold, he is a good family man and he could still kick your ass any day. Who are you to talk Perez. Ever consider the caustic effects your friggin hair dye has on our environment? Maybe you should stop dying your hair and start walking to all of your engagements including the ones cross country. You're turning into a great big cry baby.
old news. Gore wastes more than Arnold does, and he's the one that started this whole "Global Warming" fad. And look at this website! You wanna talk about wasteful.
If this gentleman would care about this WONDERFUL place, he will give some of his BIG fortune the state… so teachers woulf NOT loose their jobs, to me the teachers are more important than him…. sorry, but is the true…
I don't believe that global warming bull. The elites want us all (common people) to conserve while they continue on flying private jets, driving SUVs, etc. Buy carbon credits. ha I remember back in the 70s when they pulled about the same thing only that we were going into an ice age. This winter has been one of the coldest on record. They want to tax us on breathing, people, WAKE THE FUCK UP! As for Arnold being president, Hell NO. They would have to amend the constitution. Who wants someone who is a Nazi wannabe? I sure the hell wouldn't! Arnold is NO GOOD!!
look at his steroids ravaged body
ehhh, its better than him not purchasing the carbon credits, right? i don't buy any. His overall carbon output is probably lower than any on this boards.
Ever think he doesn't want to take his children out of their current schools or too far from the activities they enjoy? If he is paying for everything out of his own pocket, mind you business and shut the f*ck up!!!
California does not have a Governor's Mansion. He stays at a hotel while in town.
AL GORE DOES THE SAME EXACT THING! SO DOES EVERY CELEBRITY!!!!!!
if all these so called "green" celebrities were really green they would all live in smaller houses which would use less energy, drive hybrids, and stop flying to places close enough to drive too. until then, STOP HATING ON REPUBLICANS WHEN DEMOCRATS DO THE SAME EXACT THING!!!
You're awesome Perez! And, as a Sacramentan, I feel confident in saying that Sacramento would love to have the Governor and his family around more often!
datesun,
maybe he should stop worrying about those carbon credits and start worrying about our education system that he's slashing. shame on him for not making education a priority!
voted for him once. wouldn't make that mistake again.
What about your beloved Madonna? Or Al Gorepycrite?
Oh wait, you are a hypocrite too Perez!
Hollywood hypocrites. !0,000 squarefoot homes for two, suvs, private jets. They pay their fines for carbon immision and set back and condem the working man for not riding bicycles and cutting the thermostat. Perez why don't you list some of these fakes. Gore heads up the group alone with Barbara S.
he is such a hypocrite, environmentalism is for the little people he lords over in the mind of CONAN …..wrong!
Arnie is not the only a&*hole governor to forget where the capital of his state is. I live in Illinois and our governor refuses to stay in the Mansion even when he is in town (which never happens). He uses the jet for private use all the time and in general is a total waste.
$10,000 dollars an hour? Let's see, that works out to about $200,000 per month, counting just weekdays. So if this report is true, the Governor should be able to stop jetting and buy a modest bungalow within walking distance of his office, or pay for a really luxious rental, and then he can see his family daily, only without the great, whoppng, embarrassing carbon footprint. The UN says that 18,000 children die each day from hunger and malnutrition. That's a sad thought, and it's even sadder to think about all the mothers left crying, and no one can console them. Flying around in private jets is convenient and comfortable for the super wealthy, but for me, the thought of all those children would spoil my ride.
Why does everyone have to be green or even care? The pope now says it is a sin not to be green. That should be a clue as to how wrong the thinking is.
as a student doing my masters in environmental management, i really think that newsweek (and arnold) should be ashamed of themselves. newsweek should not be promoting this type of selfish behavior, which is totally the opposite of green. newsweek should have focused their attention on someone who is more deserving… like david suzuki.
He can kiss my brown arse. He is screwing us teachers and students out of millions and millions. Does he think the future of California are kids who don't currently live here?!
I'm from Sacramento and this is old news…. He doesn't live in Sac cuz it's not "cool" enough for him. Whatever! We don't want him living here anyway! Suck on that Arnie.
Michele (comment # 69) should shut the fuck up because she obviously doesn't know what she's talking about.
i'm a student working on my masters in environmental management… and from my perspective, newsweek should be ashamed of calling arnold "green"… just look at the flights. they should have focused their efforts on someone who is actually making a different, like david suziki.
He is our GOVERNOR, Sacramento is our state capital, why can't he move for work like the rest of us do. It is ridiculous that he still lives in LA. If he refuses to move himself and the family to Sac, then he should fly up on Monday and leave Thursday, work from home on Friday. Or one day a week. COME ON! Is this why he was elected by the people?
Does anyone care that he has cut California's education budget by $27 million?? What about our kids?
Duh because no one would want to live in sacramento! I don't blame them for not wanting to move!
Oh and Michele in #69 is an idiot.
deguelasse
…ew he looks like a fat old shit
Re: jai – haha, well she IS like what 50 on PerezHilton.com?
Re: hates teachers and students!!!! – Nice way for a teacher to talk. What the hell could a negroid teach us anyway?
Where's your hypocritical comments about everyone else in Hollywood, Al Gore? Carbon Credits pffffffffttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttt
Fuck Arnold! He's an asshole and that's coming from a teacher who's getting laid off b/c of his fucked ep education budget kids. Obviously he thinks he's #1!
Hope he rots in polluted hell!!!
Re: Duzzy – yes…I'm jobless as of the last day of school b/c of that bastard!
Hey, at least Arnold is paying for it himself. Here in Illinois, our joke of a dog-faced governor (who is on his 2nd term because apparently the voters here don't like change much) never left Chicago for Springfield. And we - the taxpayers - foot the bill for his travel. At least we did until he got busted for it. I'd take Arnold over the douche we have in office here ANY day.
Re: MLK SUX –
Hey dumb ass when I'm not at work I can talk like the rest of the world. Or maybe you didn't pick that up since u dropped outta the ninth grade.
Go to college to get the knowledge. Dumb Ass.
As long as he's paying for those trips home with his own money, i don't care what he does. Just like i'll decide how i spend my money, he can do whatever he wants with his.
Al Gore defends his extraordinary personal energy usage by telling critics he maintains a "carbon neutral" lifestyle by buying "carbon offsets," but the company that receives his payments turns out to be partly owned and chaired by the former vice president himself.
