everything looks good, see you next year. see you next year, thank you. making your health a priority is real love. hologic. the science of sure. a crazy scene on miami beach. look at this. it was jam packed this afternoon. to upon of your screen, you see the helicopter coming in and crashing. just a few yards offshore. here is the scene what it looked hike from the ground. people rushing to that helicopter to rescue the three passengers inside. they were all taken to a hospital. two of them have broken backs. >> i was selling a drink to a customer. and the guy was like oh, my god, and i turned around and as soon as i turn around, the helicopter just came down like -- and then smacked and hit the water. i am just glad nobody got hit by the helicopter or nothing. >> yeah, no one outside the chopper was injured. this extent could have been a disaster, very easily. firefighters say if that crash happened 50 yards more inland,

there would have been mass casualties and you can see how that would be. investigators don't know, yet, what caused that crash. bart service returning to pre-pandemic hours. tomorrow is the first sunday in two years trains are going to be running until mid night on all five lines. service has been stopping at 9:00 p.m. sundays and not all lines were open. the spapd spanded line service also means most can get to their destinations without having to transfer as much. >> today marks 80 years since executive order 966 buzz signed forcing japanese americans into internment camps during world war ii. san ma day toe county history museum marked a day of remembrance. speakers included people who lived in the camps or heard stories from their family members. >> i don't want anybody -- there is a lot of young, um, japanese children who never heard this from their parents or grandparents because when they came home from the camps, they

were either upset, or they were told by the government don't be japanese. >> well you can see, pictures of the assembly center where 8,000 japanese people were interned at the museum in downtown redwood city. celebrating black history month in a way that is friendly to the environment. the eco center in the bay view in san francisco did just that today. here, you see an artist painting a mural. kids also getting hands a little dirty. that is always fun. celebration highlighted health and wellness through art and nature. >> all right. well, the secret is out. greenhouse gas emissions are linked to everything we put on our plates. one of the biggest offenders is animal agriculture with up to about 15% of global greenhouse gas emission, alone. and now, patrick brown, bay area scientist and founder of plant-based protein company impossible foods, says if the world eliminated animal agriculture in the next 15 years, global carbon emissions would go down 68%.

while critics say getting everyone to go vegan is wildly unrealistic, brown disagrees. >> the problem is that people love these foods. the problem is that we are making them the wrong way and if we can develop better technology, we can let the market solve the problem. >> other experts say we should be targeting methane emissions from animals, instead. so, one example, how the dairy industry has started capturing biogas and converting it into truck fuel like a well-balanced diet, solving global warming will like need a variety of strategies. >> let's check in with rob mayeda and we have got a change in the weather to say the least coming up. >> see some cooling to wrap up the weekend but bigger changings lying down the road as we head toward tuesday. tomorrow morning, we have got some patchy fog, high clouds, temperatures mostly in the 40s. by lunchtime, should see low 60s around san jose and by 3:00 in the afternoon, mid-60s for highs around san jose. upper 50s to low 60s bay side

again. little cooler, not as many 730s like we enjoyed today. now,by got more clouds for sunday. these will not bring us the showers. those will be arriving as we head into monday night knight and tuesday as this air mass that settles in will be very cold. we are talking snow levels possibly below 3,000 feet during the day on tuesday. so the one weather day that looks pretty wild around the bay area, though the rain totals won't be big, will be the scattered showers. if you look closely here, by tuesday afternoon, you really start to see the snow possibly coming down on higher peaks of the north bay, diablo range, and even the santa cruz mountains do get some of that before the showers start to decrease as we get into tuesday night. so watch how much colder the temperatures are as we get into tuesday afternoon. these are highs. low 50s. that means, most of the day, we are going to be in the 40s with those cold, windy conditions, winter making a big comeback for tuesday afternoon. and watch the lasting effect of that cold air. morning temperatures, wednesday,

on into thursday, with less wind, could be in the low 30s around the north bay and i wouldn't rule out a few upper 20s in some of those north bay valleys will have to watch for freeze warnings. beyond that, doesn't look like we are going to see much in the way of rain for next weekend. for now, the storm staying north but we got a pretty active day coming on tuesday. look at the drop in temperatures. could have hail and slight chance of thunder. really tuesday, everything happening on that one day and then we will have to watch those cold morning temperatures for the second half of the week. things do dry out but they will stay chilly as we head into next weekend. back to you. >> all right. thanks. anthony flores joining us now and you know, the nba all-star weekend is supposed to be big excitement. what'd you think? >> it was okay. not bad. but we had a bay area guy -- right? it was exciting. anderson competes in the
