Conference of Governors on Climate Change

That's Governator Arnold Schwarzenegger up on the podium. In the back from left is Yale president Richard Levin, Nobel Prize winner IPCC ex-head R.K. Pachauri, and Jodi Rell governor of Connecticut, then at the end the dean of Yale Forestry School and a professor in the Law School.
The only one with something substantive (and intelligent) to say was Pachauri who commented on everyone's shared responsibility to tackle the inevitably disastrous consequences of global climate change. Arnold started his speech saying he and Levin were just at the gym pumping iron, and that Levin was "benchpressing a sophomore". Nice Arnie.
