the tenderloin first, we have your alley crew in the tenderloin that's stuff we're doing not part of the promissory note program but, yes we try to go to schools thought the city and we partnered with a company called elizabeth rat an online service through init is a gram the students we dealt with last year giving the presentations with the department of environment we're basically going back like the middle school we did the presentation for the sixth grade class now phase two to do the interact active component the entire 7th grade will be there for the presentation and each class will compete each other nor prizes basically go out for an hour a

week taking photos and pimp up litter and take the photos and create art shows from the trash they've picked up and go back to the classes or go online to elizabeth other and looking at what they public comment is closed picked up like the mcdonald they can historian tag and a at mcdonald and see where the cups are picked up in literally rot there was one school involved they noticed a lot of what we were picking up what the paper the stray papers they convinced the school to purchase extras one way or the other without the paper wrappers to try to help this way the

scott taylor's students can analysis what transparence it around and go to a starbuck's or mcdonalds and ask hey, we've got a lot of your stuff how can you help. >> i'm a small business owners in san francisco i know that a lot of folks like myself have employees that are going back looking to do something good ways to go volunteer or have a volunteer in the afternoon we're not starbuck's in terms of a tool kidded for a group like that okay. i'm going to give 4 hours where it is simple i don't have to necessarily get on a schedule or sign up nor small business something if there's a way to do it on our own to make sure we count it as a giant

(clapping.) next item is the (inaudible) commission president urgent (inaudible).org environmental (inaudible). >> thank you very much colleagues as we welcome antonio diaz their executive director when we come out to the community we want to obviously share what's going on with the department but we're learning tonight i know when it comes to organized working on the ground promoting opportunity empowerment and building leadership and getting a handle on what's happening in the community and promoting environmental justice when you come to the neighborhood there's not a better organization than with them we're lucky to have they're executive director here

tonight and let's welcome him anthony diaz. >> thank you, president and director rafaeli have a few handfuls in the presentation i apologize in order to save paper i've put 3 slides on one sheet we'll make copies available to the department thank you. i thank you. i'm anthony diaz thank you for your the opportunity to be here with you this evening since 1991 we've been organizing with the families and youth in san francisco to put into a practice people powder seclusions that are community lead i want to talk about our community resiliency and the empowerment work in our southeast

neighborhood but first mention the problem we're addressing through the work we're doing oufk you know our neighborhoods in southeast san francisco are heavily impacted by environmental and economic and social inequalities those are the result of a long history of poor land use policymaking that have hurt community of color in particular we can't meet in the mission without talking about the current crisis of gent indication the as mentioned before the previous presentation that not only is san francisco as a whole as the tab both facing the pressures but the mission is grounding ground zero this is hard to read in the mission right now the medium for

a one barroom apartment is $3,000 so this is an example of a kind of economic impact we're feeling in the neighborhood as well as a lot of evictions that are displaci displacing working class families i've mentions in particular from the mission once again i apologize this chart is hard to read but the mission has the highest number of ellis act evictions displacement is a public health issue and an environmental justice issue and disparticular time is a climate issue because of the impacts there's been shifts in the population of the may be ass as you can see from

234506789 to 2010 the latino population in the inner mission doctors by 10 percent even though the population of latinos has dlrd decreased in the mission district grown in the tenderloin and hunters point for example, regardless the population shifts the mission district remains the krltd heart and soul of the latino community you see is intoouk the building not van ness but on mission and 44 accounting street i definitely feel the presence of a vibrant communicated very important in this context for us is also the environmental and environmental health impacts we see in the neighborhood based on stationary and non-stationary pollution sources

for example, a map of the pollution and the freeways you can't quite see it but the higher pollution levels is closer to the freeways but the ratio of demographics the higher the people of color in those areas as we know environmental impacts has been stated are disare proportionally faced in the community of color i'm sure you're aware of this has specific health impacts asthma and other health issues that heavily impact the residents in our neighborhoods other important correlation to go make around vial impact and health is also we're beginning to grapple with increasing with the impacts of the climate change there's a could

recommendation around the vial impacts and climate mobilities so for example, this is a map that shows the cumulative 1r50ush89 score by looking at the percentage of the percentage of tree canopy and the percentage of elderly living alone and the temperature change and other things the reder areas have the higher vulnerability dense i did population so once again i'm not here to sort talk about the bad stuff i think that the commission and the department knows those things and you are all gap el about how to make san francisco a safer and a cleaner city but you want to talk about the issues being

addressed the work we're doing to put into from the people powder solutions for the environmental sustainability and community resilience and economic justice and we're doing that through one of our campaigns the pueblo speaking the people and the lots together and really putting public land in people's hands to meet the neighborhood priorities those are photos of a park open 23rd and fulsome right by here contemplated vacant lot we worked with the residents to turn it is one of my colleagues mentioned about the lack of open space in the mission this is one the bright spots few of the parks that children's parks in the neighborhood that was recently built

we do this work through door to door engagement neighbor to neighbor talking to the folks and getting them involved in the community issues through getting folks to create those local solutions we know that people who live, work and play in the neighborhoods are the best planners for their neighborhoods so we we work on the community side to raise our voices and make sure that through community advocacy that we are informing city agencies and policymakers about what we need from the ground up even a city like san francisco it is too often from the top down with this it has relative for example, us seeing new park and

housing here in the mission at 17th and fulsome new housing at 19 and mission down the street new urban farms we've worked with the folks in the neighborhood to get the city to purchase land or dedicate land for those efforts but i should say the practice we want affordable housing but we also want green healthy housing we recognize that san francisco is to be a leader in the being a green city that all those projects sprouting ulcer up in the neighborhoods need to be developed with that important land and your department plays a key roll other works we're investing in creating the community of practice of working with one

another to build a neighborhood resiliency we work with our neighbors to work with healthy plants and learning about food traditions and building and fixing bicycle and as well as working with the tech assistance provides to share and learn critical compost and rainwater things those are important we can't wait for the policies to are implemented for the city to reopened we can start demonstrating now with the contingency resiliency looks like at the same time, we do the practices on the ground we're also moving policies to help with public investment for workers and community this is an example of a report we did with the xroir neighborhood we the

community assessment we did over 20 community groups in spanish and tagalog and chinese to get the development needs in the neighborhood and out of that came some city funding quite frankly to do the deems project that brings together the worker rights and education of investing in policies that provide career opportunities for residents and the employment for port services and building economic assets in our neighborhood in particular that has focused on the could open community cooperation and incubation it is ruled in our members last year launched a catering mississippi license number and other members launched another food

establishment for the food this evening and as well as other used bikes and fixing skills to young people and giving away bikes to low income residents in the neighborhood and really developing and promoting a vision of alternative transportation modes and having an impact on our environment and in doing the work we're reenvisioning what the green jobs and having a green economy it's not just a hard hat it's day to day work from the grassroots from the bottom you will u up beside our local work such emerald city and the california justice alliance to
