Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger Reveals Green Jobs Youth Program

California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger announced Monday a plan to enlist California’s youth into a green jobs program.

In his latest eco-friendly efforts, the governor revealed the California Green Corps which will train young adults between 16 and 24 to work in the state’s green-tech industry.

Schwarzenegger stated at the press conference Monday that he was taking a page out of Obama’s book, saying, “It’s the kind of program President Obama envisioned when he put together the economic stimulus package. It’s all about jobs, jobs, jobs.”

The new green program will be monitored by his volunteerism assistant Karen Baker and will receive around $20 million in initial funding.
