liz: as california faces a dire drought, high school students are making a difference to offset the impact on our ecosystem. i got a chance to see firsthand how students are helping keep salmon alive during the drought. 6th period at casagrande high school likely looks different than yours did. it certainly did for me. that is because these students are part of a one-of-a-kind fish hatchery program, learning first-hand about conservation. >> he is cleaning to make sure

grime does not build up. they are doing weight counts now. liz: care for steelhead drought. but because of extreme drought conditions, they have been called upon to do something different. they have taken in thousands of salmon at risk of extinction. >> suddenly, the summer after covid, the drought is so bad that these other hatcheries need help. liz: the science teacher explained that usually the salmon are cared for at the hatchery, but water temperatures got so hot they needed to find the fish a new home. >> making a long story short, we ended up with fish from mendocino county, the russian river itself, and santa cruz. liz: the hatchery opened in 1993. this is the first time in the program's history students have been approached to ask for the salmon. >> they are so endangered. part of that is a

once-in-a-lifetime activity. >> they need our help. liz: the hope is for the salmon to return sometime this fall. their time at casagrande high school is a short-term solution but with a lot of impact. >> we are able to help out with a fish, but it also allows long-term looking at these young adults being able to step in. it gives them hope for the future. >> and seeing that we can really make a difference, it is amazing. it is going to stay with us the rest of our lives. liz: their teacher explained that coho salmon are considered indicator species that are very sensitive to environmental change, so the fact that they are struggling tells a lot. still to come on abc7 mornings, employers across the country are scrambling as vaccine mandates are going into effect. hear from a teacher

liz: abc7 news is committed to building a better bay area by tracking stories that track your health. a device that they hope will free kidney patients from dialysis -- luz peña has the details. luz: for thousands of kidney patients in the u.s., the only practical hope of getting off dialysis has been waiting for a transplant. now, a new engineering breakthrough is reigniting hopes for a second option -- an artificial kidney. >> we are able to create a functional prototype that was able to produce urine. luz: we first met the professor and his lab where he was working with a concept model.

the working prototype employs two chambers, each about the size of a deck of cards. on one side are membranes for cleaning the blood, similar to dialysis. on the other sack, a bioreactor fueled by living cells that will perform other functions the kidneys would normally control. >> this would allow dialysis patients to eat and drink freely, travel without being tethered to a machine, and have better physiological outcomes, because they are getting continuous treatment, unlike dialysis that happens every other day. luz: the artificial kidney prototype was tested successfully in live animal models. this technology would need to be improved to make human trials possible. the goal is to keep the unit at a size where it can be implanted in the body but, at the same time, adding more filtering power. the professor says that

challenges our funding and improved engineering. but he believes that bioengineered design is now proven to be practical. >> and it is still likely to get to treat patients in the coming decade. liz: the half-million dollar prize awarded -- was awarded by a public-private partnership dedicated to accelerating the treatment of kidney disease. pretty fascinating. frances, one more very warm day before we get cold air coming in. frances: and here's a look in santa cruz. you can see the light house and no fog. it will be 84 this afternoon in santa cruz. well above average temperatures expected today and a cooling start tomorrow. some relief is on the way. liz: next, the giants' magic number sits at 1 to clinch the nl west after falling in extra innings to the padres.

liz: welcome back. here is a live look from our pier 39 camera.

not a lot of sea lions hanging out there today. 69 degrees in san francisco. let's talk sports today. huge day of sports on tap in the bay area this afternoon. the 49ers will try to rebound up there last week's heartbreaking lost to the seahawks. then on the diamond, the giants will try once again to clinch the nl west against the padres. first pitch at 12:05. the a's will close out their season at minute maid park at 12:10. yesterday, the giants fell in extra innings in san diego while the dodgers kept their division hopes alive. here is chris alvarez with all the details. chris: good morning. the giants won a franchise record-tying 106 games. they still need one more victory to capture the nl west title. 101-year-old fans hoping to see the celebration. austin slater pinch-hitting.

that is the giants 18th pinch-hit homer of the season, a new major league record. 2-1 san francisco. bottom of the ninth, tied at 2 -- tied at 2-2. brandon crawford has had an m.v.p. type season. trent grisham fights the sun and makes the catch. we go to extras. top 10, two outs. jay cohen and, base hit to right field. the padres take a 3-2 lead. flores pops the giants lose in 10 innings. >> it is kind of the story of the season. i think, overall, obviously the group was disappointed after the game today, feeling like we had opportunities to win the game. but ultimately, the dodgers are a good team too, and we have 106 wins, and we will get game 162 to try to decide the division.

chris: and it will come down to game 162, because in l.a., a three run homer in the first to open the scoring against milwaukee -- the dodgers ahead. a.j. pollock adds a two run shot in the fourth to make it 6-1. l.a. wins. the giants need to win and the dodgers to lose, but if the giants lose and the dodgers win, it is game 163. the fourth quarter, five seconds left. to the end zone -- incomplete but there is a flakka. defensive holding. the fate to elijah higgins for the touchdown, and we go to overtime, tied at 24-24. fired off to john humphreys. barrels his way in. stanford takes the lead.

excitement there. final chance, and it is incomplete. the cardinals upset oregon. great for stanford, but the pac-12 playoff chances are essentially dead. >> if we are down by a touchdown, whatever. with a minute and have left, we still got what it takes to do it, because we have done it before. we have done it against the number three oregon team. we know what we are capable of. now we understand, we can go into games when it is close, we can go into it with confidence. chris: that is your look at sports. liz: let's go over to frances. those going to the game will be bringing the sunglasses, the sunscreen, not even the jacket. frances: t-shirt and shorts weather heading to the game, even in san francisco. very little cloud cover. there are a few clouds at the beaches. you will see some of the fog as well. it is already dissipating and pulling back, so with winds that are light and lots of sunshine,

temperatures warm up again to well above average. already 60 degrees in san francisco. oakland, 66. half moon bay at 59 degrees. hazy skies ahead. there is a spare the air alert in effect again. in santa rosa, 59. fairfield, 68 degrees. livermore at 63. spare the air alert in effect. try to avoid driving if you can. the forecast is that we are expecting poor air quality in the in east bay, moderate air quality elsewhere. things start to improve monday and continue to improve tuesday as we get the cooler and cleaner marine air, bringing temperatures down as well. here is a look from our roof camera towards the embarcadero there. you notice the trees are not blowing at all. if you're heading to the game, 12: 05, it starts at 75 and then
