He approved 2 and rejected 1.

I think he was caught between a rock and a hard place. Yes he could have not approved any of them. But then he's be pasted as a lefty enviro nut by the Conservative opposition and the corporate press. And he wouldn't last long. It doesn't mean its over though. Now its up to us.
