@MHurabiell So many other cities with large waterfronts have it all - designated walking paths, biking paths, and a road for cars all along the beach. These areas are thriving with recreation, housing, nature and tourism all coexisting together. It can be a both/and
@SelenaC10705 A strip of asphalt is not a park. The Prop K marketing was very misleading from the beginning. It said Yes on K Ocean Beach Park. Ocean Beach was already there and is still there. A nice pathway for bikes was already there and is still there. Prop K was for a parkway, not a park
@WorldResources A similar vicious circle is happening with logging. Climate change is making fires hotter, so groups are oddly logging forests under the guise of protecting them. This tree removal creates carbon emissions and climate change, thereby starting the cycle over again
@WorldResources@WRIClimate Great! Hopefully protecting and properly caring for large shade trees in cities is on the list. Preserving existing urban tree canopy is a huge untapped opportunity
@garrytan CEQA is not supposed to block projects. It is supposed to improve projects and make them better for people if they need improving. If CEQA is being used to kill projects, then it is being misused. When properly used, CEQA can deliver public safety and quality of life
@UNEP Protecting Shade Trees helps to cool cities and save lives. Shade Trees in cities need protection and proper care. Healthy trees continue to be cut down and butchered. This is an untapped opportunity with a high ROI. Protect a Tree, Cool a City
Small fixes. Stronger home.
Wildfire-prepared home upgrades do not have to be expensive. A few targeted improvements can help reduce ember risk and strengthen your home’s defenses.
Fact: Most homes lost to wildfire are not ignited by flames. They ignite from embers that can travel ahead of a fire and find soft spots in your home’s defenses.

@DanielLurie Fabulous! Please keep at least some of the London Plane trees as they are providing valuable shade, clean air, and scenic beauty for visitors waiting for the cable car. Thank you so much
@barakgila@WolffOnYourSide@GrowSF@SFyimby Patrick Wolff is the real deal, and he would fix the insurance situation in CA with real solutions. No offense to the other candidates, but they have proposed ideas that would make wildfire and insurance worse in CA
@Senator_Hurtado This is fantastic. Thank you so much. This grazing reduces the small dry fuel on the ground - the top igniter and carrier of fire. Thank you for your visionary leadership
@RobMayeda Thank you for highlighting this important issue. The small dry fuel on the ground is the top igniter and carrier of fire. Doing kindling reduction via prescribed fire, grazing, and brush removal is key. Standing large trees can also help by increasing moisture on the ground
@UNEP@mremae 100%. Truly protecting mature and primary forests is one of the most powerful ways to stop climate change. Logging still dominates forest carbon credits, except for planting trees. Forests are increasingly threatened. How can we make the carbon in big trees count?
