all right, welcome back. here is a live look from our abc 7 roof cam. it is 67 degrees. excuse me, 06 degrees rig60 deg francisco. time is 5:14 on this sunday. we want to tell you about a a new study that the embarcadero could be devastated by earthquakes and rising sea levels. the loma prieta sized quake could dislodge soil holding embarcadero in place, damaging sidewalks, historic buildings and transit lines, areas near the ferry building and fisherman's wharf are at risk. sea level increase as little as two feet could flood streets and that could happen as soon as 2050. hmm. all right, in the east bay,

this year's disastrous fire season is actually pushing some people out of their homes in the oakland hills to make sure their neighborhood is fire safe for this fall. they got a grant and permission from the city's arborist and vegetation management supervisor to remove hundreds of problem trees. luz pena hose you how they're doing. >> reporter: if a tree falls in the forest and no one is around, does it make a sound? in this case, oakland hills residents want to hear more of this as we approach the peak of the fire season. >> we live in this and we could see the danger. >> reporter: former bay area news personality and oakland hills resident wendy takuda is one of the volunteers, they secured $20,000nt to managenthate from the tiablow fire safe council which serves alameda and contra costa county and they give out small grants and you match it with

volunteer hours which say cool thing. in grant came from the california fire foundation. >> reporter: we tagged along with ed evans in the fuel management and tree business for 30 years. now he's seen an increase of dry vegetation. >> we had several dead trees in this area, and they were leading up the hill. >> reporter: his team clears three to four acres in a matter of days. here is an example of that, over 200 trees were removed. their plan is to prevent overcrowding of smaller trees, a process that will continue with more grants. they are increasing the efforts of these community members. >> it takes some time to advance to any reduction in that fuel load slows that spread. >> all right, and excuse me for the end there, but anyway there's no slowdown for the state's largest wildfires fought now. powerful winds fueled a flare-up of the bobcat fire, that one exploded to 93,000 acres, just

15% containment now. fresno county cal fire is starting to lift some evacuation orders in the creek fire. the fire has burned nearly 272,000 acres with 25% containment. the largest in state history is the august complex, now at nearly 834,000 acres, just massive fire in the mendocino national forest, containment is at 31%. firefighters have been pushed really to their limits, for months the wildfire season. this week after logging another 14-hour shift one crew found the energy to muster up a song. ♪ take me out to the fire, take me out to the lie ♪ >> very creative. these oregon firefighters have been battling the lion shed fire for weeks, they look exhausted. oh my goodness, 20 have been on the front lines for nearly 60 da

oregon. >> saiy, boss, we want to you hear something. this is too good. i pulled out my phone and i was like do it one more time, this is the most fun thing i've heard in a minute. >> the head of the crew says they are exhausted but they're doing well, and it's a passion for a lot of the firefighters, they do it because they love this work but lisa, gosh, i feel for them out there. this is hard on their families, too, they have to be away from home from their families poy ie months. >> the worst of the worst times, we are in the fall season, more in the way of high fire danger. by the end of the week not only are we talking about an offshore flow, which could bring those gusty offshore winds, drying out the atmosphere, but we also could see a few showers so a little complicated, i'll explain in a moment. doesn't look likely, but the possibility is there, and this is the season where cold fronts become more prevalent in the pacific northwest, and whether

or not they slip to the south is if we get lucky to see any sort of rainfall, as we look at live doppler 7 right now, you can see some fog offshore there, overall it is just patchy, and of course, this is the time of year where we don't see a whole lot of fog but as we look towards the pacific northwest, looks kind of active and it is, all of this is pointed into the gulf of alaska, the pacific northwest, but we could get a tail end of one of these systems by late thursday into friday, but even the beginning of the week, it will influence our weather. as we look at current numbers, it's 61 in concord. 57 in san ramon. 52 santa rosa novato. 59 in san francisco with 54 in half moon bay. it's a little cool along the coast, about 7 degrees cooler, elsewhere two to five degrees cooler around the bay. as we look at the fog impact in the next several days, today it lines up along the san mateo coast. we get into your monday, very little once again, a little bit

of patchy fog, say south of half moon bay, and here comes that next system. notice the higher clouds monday into tuesday, and more of a marine layer. we'll pick up on that in just a moment. as we look at the air quality, looks pretty good right now. you can see a little bit of haze there, moderate air quality towards vacaville. it has improved up in the north bay and that will continue to be the trend, as our onshore flow continues. so here is a look at what i was getting at, the first system coming into play. here we are later on in the day today. still a slight northerly wind. into your monday and tuesday there's that first system going into the pacific northwest. brings us more healthy de of low clouds and fog. as we get into wednesday and thursday, here is the next system, check it out. it is bringing rain to the pacific northwest, but by friday, it gets awfully close to the bay area, and still bringing that northerly wind, so we could see a little bit of precip and

behind it maybe the northerly wind pickup. 79 in oakland. look for 8 1 fremont. 85 in san jose with upper 80s in the north bay. a little hazy to start out there, 91 in livermore p 92 in antioch. the accuweather seven-day forecast looking at a slight start with hazy skies to start out and then we'll clear out throughout the afternoon. it will be breezy and cooler for your monday. here comes autumn right on cue with cooler weather that takes us through the middle of the week and there is our slight chance of maybe some showers by the end of the week. so definitely getting impacts with the cool weather systems into the pacific northwest, and we'll have to stay tuned to see how it influences our weather hopefully in a good way. >> crosses fingers, thank you. the prime time emmys a reckoning. >> no money no, education. >> well below market but it's really not about the money.

snap judgment. it's the micromoments of judgment and perception that influence how we treat the people around us often without us know so long we set up an experime perception test. >> where is this going? >> reporter: abc 7 news. >> oh, crap. >> reporter: one by one i asked people what they saw looking at four stock photos i found online starting with this one. >> maybe had been in some troubles before, maybe like to me he looks like maybe a recovery person. >> reporter: do you trust this guy? >> yeah, i would. yeah. >> there's a little bit of an intensity in his gaze, but you can't tell anything, because if you imagine, you take everything off, it's just a man. >> reporter: people empathized with the blue-eyed man, saw his humanity, making little assumption about his life circumstances. then we showed thiss ipicture. >> first thought country.dor >> is she looking for help or looking for family members or

food or anything? >> reporter: back-to-back. >> might be yearning love, attention, a hug or maybe even a meal. >> reporter: a similar answer. >> maybe having access to resources, you know, looks like somebody who has a lack in that area. >> reporter: what makes you say that in. >> just mainly the look in her eyes. >> why does a person, a young girl, a brown girl have to be someone from a third world country? the images that we see that are put forth in particularly in media really shape the perceptions. these images are very damaging. >> reporter: more on it reynolds is the executive directors of the oakland based maynard journalism for education, the oldest dedicating to portraying accurately in media. >> the good part about this though is the biases are

mutable. we don't have to be a prisoner xi and that they are re that within us. >> reporter: but how aware are we that these biases are within us? >> determined look on his face, maybe could be employed, could be unemployed. could have the hood up and just might feel like there's nowhere elts else to go. >> happy being where he is, a hood, clear eyes, talk to me. >> like a hip-hop rapper. maybe a boxer, some type of fitness person. >> media has portrayed black men and black men are associated with crime, with sports, and with entertainment. so she proves that point. >> i don't think we can tell much. in the current political climate if i saw this man walking, the only thing ishe's not yet afraid to wear a hood over his face because of being targeted.

>> reporter: they acknowledge the stereotypes reinforced by images in media. >> it's not right that i know they're trying to perpetuate a thing of somebody walking being somebody to fear. i don't know. it's just we all have a right to be cold. >> reporter: on our final picture a common reaction. >> well immediately i thought because of the hair, i didn't look at the rest of the outfit, i thought she was a girl but then now she's a boy, or -- at least because of the colors. >> her family could be pretty good. >> reporter: you're sure it's a girl, though? >> oh, sure -- no, maybe not. maybe could be a boy. >> oh. reminds me of my grandchild. she looks like, i don't know if it's a she or a he really. it's kind of hard to tell. >> reporter: each person fixated on the child's birychoice,ither a t lg hr or a,

a top thaek comes up often in martin's training exercises. >> cisgender folks, the gender which you were born hadn't had to consider that. our society is so cisgender-based that it's either this binary, it's man, it's woman. >> reporter: even if while watching at home you didn't fall into the same bias tlapz iraps important to realize we have blind spots and we must dedicate to educating ourselves. >> the reality is in order to change what we are seeing in this country that change has to come from within, and be very personal and so i would say start with self. >> reporter: so what will you do differently now? for abc 7 news, i'm julian glover. >> watch all of this week's coverage as we work to build a better bay area through social justice. head to abc7news.com or any of
