“7 Million That Die Every Year”: Arnold Schwarzenegger’s Fight to Ban Fossil Fuels Was Driven by This Shocking Stat

Seven times Mr. Olympia Arnold Schwarzenegger has enjoyed success in every field that he ever stepped in. After achieving almost everything that the sport of bodybuilding had to offer, his transition to the showbiz was a smooth one. However, when he decided to step into politics, it was a whole other ball game even for ‘The Austrian Oak.’

Serving as the Governor of California for years, ‘The Governator’ faced several challenges. The main issue that he fought against was pollution. ‘Arnie’ did everything in his control to reduce pollution. But what was the reason behind his fighting for this issue? Let’s take a look.

Arnold Schwarzenegger amazes the viewers with a shocking stat

During his time at the Pat McAfee Show recently, among many other topics, Schwarzenegger reflected upon his time as the Governor. Talking about what motivated him to fight against pollution and global warming, Schwarzenegger shared an interesting and shocking stat. He started by stating, “It’s one thing to make the laws, It’s another thing to make people understand the laws that you pass.”

Continuing further, he said, “There’s 7 million people that die every year of pollution. So we can do better than that. So let’s get rid of pollution. Let’s get rid of fossil fuels. There’s no reason why people have to die of cancer because of all of that stuff. So you know, it was like, work, work, work the whole time.”

Schwarzenegger continued by pointing out another stat that revolves around Americans. But this is not the first time he talked about this. During his time with Jay Shetty recently, he revealed on his podcast that most Americans are not happy with their jobs. 

Schwarzenegger was left blue by this American statistic 

Back when ‘The Austrian Oak’ stepped foot in America, he had to work a lot of different jobs to make ends meet. However, with time and hard work, Schwarzenegger made his first million through real estate. Coming from a small village in Austria, Schwarzenegger knows how tough it can be to make money.

So when Schwarzenegger discovered that the majority of American working adults despised their jobs, he was shocked. “When you read that 78% of the American people hate their jobs, now… think about that,” Schwarzenegger said while appearing on the Jay Shetty Podcast. “I mean, that must be so depressing,” said the former governor of California.
