VO: (:30) LAST MONTH, GOVERNOR SCHWARZENEGGER WAS QUESTIONED ABOUT HIS PERSONAL COMMITMENT TO GREENHOUSE GAS REDUCTION, AFTER IT WAS LEARNED THE GOVERNOR TRAVELS BY PERSONAL JET AS OFTEN AS ONCE A DAY BETWEEN SACRAMENTO AND SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA'S BRENTWOOD. THE GROUP HELIUM SOURCE SAYS THE GOVERNOR'S GULFSTREAM JET CAUSES AS MUCH ENVIRONMENTAL DAMAGE IN ONE HOUR AS A SMALL CAR DOES IN A YEAR. BROWN, WHO YESTERDAY HINTED HE IS CONSIDERING RUNNING FOR GOVERNOR IN 2010, SAYS COMMERCIAL AIRLINE TRAVEL IS A MAJOR SOURCE OF SO-CALLED GLOBAL WARMING, BUT WAS UNWILLING TO STATE WHETHER LOCAL GOVERNMENTS SHOULD CURTAIL THEIR AIRPORT EXPANSION PROJECTS.
SUPER: ATTORNEY GENERAL JERRY BROWN/D-OAKLAND
SOT: (:36)
REPORTER: "SHOULD WE BE LOOKING AT EXPANDING AIRPORTS WHEN REALLY, MAYBE WE SHOULD BE CUTTING AIR TRAVEL?"
SAYS: "WELL, THERE'S CERTAINLY A GOOD ARGUMENT TO BE SAID THAT WITHIN REGIONAL TRAVEL, THAT TRAINS ARE MORE EFFICIENT, THAT WE SHOULD BE BUILDING UP OUR TRAIN CAPACITY, THE UH, HIGH SPEED RAIL FUND. THAT'S GOING IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION. WE NED MORE MASS TRANSIT, BUT WE'RE STILL GOING TO HAVE PLANES AND SHIPS AND CARS, AND WE'RE GOING TO HAVE TO REDUCED TRAVEL, OR GET MUCH GREATER EFFICIENCIES AND COME UP WITH NEW FUEL."

SOT: (:18)
SAYS: "AIR TRAVEL IS A MAJOR COMPONENT OF GLOBAL WARMING, IT'S GOING TO BE MAYBE THE LAST THING WE REALLY CONTROL AND IT'S ACTUALLY UNDER THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT. BUT ON THE GROUND, IN THE AIRPORT, ON THE PARKING LOTS, THERE CAN BE GREAT GAINS IN TERMS OF REDUCING GREENHOUSE GAS."

SOT: (0:51)
REPORTER: "HOW DO YOU RECONCILE YOUR, YOUR PUBLIC RHETORIC ON GLOBAL WARMING VERSUS YOUR PERSONAL LIFESTYLE CHOICES?"
SAYS: "ARE YOU ALWAYS THAT POSITIVE? (LAUGHTER) ...A VERY POSITIVE GUY...UM, I EXPLAINED THAT POINT ALREADY. TO ME, IT'S VERY IMPORTANT THAT I SERVE THE PEOPLE OF CALIFORNIA, BUT ALSO ART THE SAME TIME TO SERVE MY FAMILY. AND SO IN ORDER TO DO BOTH, I FLY TWO OR THREE TIMES A WEEK UP HERE TO SACRAMENTO, I FLY BACK AGAIN AT NIGHT SO I CAN BE WORTH MY FAMILY, AND DO THE HOMEWORK, WITH MY KIDS, I SPEND TIME WITH MY WIFE AND EVERYTHING, WHICH IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT THAT I PROMISED THEM, AND I PROMISED THE PEOPLE OF CALIFORNIA THAT I WOULD TAKE CARE OF THE JOB AND THAT'S WHERE I DO AND THAT'S WHY I FLY UP TO SACRAMENTO AND ALL OVER THE STATE."
