centers, middle school, high school, we work with community partners to make this a private anchor for our neighborhood. with that, again welcome to visitation valley library and like to introduce very proud of the support for the library, mayor ed lee. >> thank you lieu ease and welcome to the visitation valley branch library. this is one of those gems that way back in public works days luis teamed up together with public works department and designed this beautiful beautiful building and think all the residents who use the library with families and kid appreciate how we restored the building with a great architectural touch as well as the actual content and hours. this is a example of what we are talking about that is reflected in the budget for neighborhoods.
10:43 am
i have always loved the city because it has strong neighborhoods and one the anchor institutions that make our neighborhoods strauss is sth public libraries. opposite to what sometimes i read about other cities when they have economic troubles first and foremost they go after their libraries. we do the opposite and when ineconomy is strong as it is #4ist torically today eel we'll invest in more public libraries. this is where places work and want to say thank you to our librar ian, she wundserful leader and let us have their family children space. if we are here too long the kids will get rowdy and they have every right to because this is their space and respect that. i think they know why i'm here and happy to be here to unveil the may 1 budget, but before i do that
10:44 am
i want to share a bit of good news and that is in concert with our libraries and great leadership of library staff here and every branch we have in the itcity, we runouncing a increase to the library hour frz the entire city. that means that there will be a minimum of at least 50 hours a week the libraries are open. there are more program jz more story time to be readic to and read to in branch libraries like this. this is part of the enrichment programs violate to families and children and in fact, a number-i think at least 3 to 4 that willect attend the hours to 7 day as week. that is a incredible part to do so but every library will have a minimum of at least 50 hours. the chinatown branch and ocean view
10:45 am
branch and mission library branches will be at least 3 that will experience fis clt upgrades to make sure they are the libraries for the 21 century. again, i will emphasize just a few years ago, we were having e to consider cutting so many thing jz had double digit unemployment but as a result och good investment jz result of having great bond ratings and borrowing opportunities we'll invest in our libraries and make sure that they reflect what we want for our families, for our kids, for our parents, a safe, clean place to read, to learn. more and more you see the libraries are full of computers now too so they can access the internet, learn how to use it effectively. we do that and know we do that in the bayview library branch jz other branches so that we can
10:46 am
use the libraries as 1 of our ininstruments to fill the digital divide at the same time. >> [inaudible] [yelling in background] >> for anyone to suggest that investing in our neighborhood branch libraries is i think a incredible gap of understanding. but, let me say this and i'll want to make sure that you know that the 12 departments of the city out of the 53 departments is the announcement for todays may 1 budget. those 12 departments comprise the 4 enterprise departments and a number of
10:47 am
departments that have fees as rather than the general fund as their major source of revenue and includes all of the departments that deal with our cities basic infrastructure. they together all 12 together comprise some 4.9 billion dollars in investments in the next 2 years that create and sustain some 41,000 jobs in the city. this is announcement and proud working with our office, they are working and will be presenting of course in the budget to board of supervises and we'll seek their approval of their budgets and it continues our strong economic foundation for the city in making sure we take care of our infrastructure. in the 12 departments ask include the airport and port and public utilities commission, the municipal
10:48 am
transportation commission or building inspection as a example, you have at the airport. they will continue refurbishing our terminals and making sure they support the incredible historic levels of visitors coming into the sitee. they also have a incredible turnout the airport is building its own hotel that will be part the visitor experience that will be reflective of the number 1 driver in the citytoryism and haase pitality. we will make invisment in theport that will be one the biggest infrastructure challenges in the time and chablg for reziziancy and that is making sure the sea whaul wall will be there for hopefully another century or. the sea wall is something we'll teach the public about because it is underground and
10:49 am
along the entire eastern side the city and you don't see it, it is below ground but if we don't rebuild the sea wall and make sure it is safe, everything along the water front from embarcadero to piers is under incredible challenge. the puc will make investment jz water system and sewer system and our pawer system and mta that will be improving transit and making sure the city is safer and longer last aing and includes funding for some 30 vision zero projects that total $70 million. we want to come pleat the vision zero projects and make sure the goal is met in 2024 so this budget will do that. we'll also have something we are experiencing in the mission and that is a much more
10:50 am
cultural effective response and prevention and too the fire squz anything that will destroy affordable housing so we have within this and again thank you to the leadership of tom howee and building inspection collaboration with the fire department to insure education in the communities where fires seem to be still ones that we want to prevent from happening that will have a comp tent response making sure that all of the residents and building owners have a higher level of safety for these very valuable historic buildings and buildings that are housing a lot of affordability at this time. those are the sro's and the low income apartment buildings that still exist in the mission district. this budget will also reflect the moving forward and muni
10:51 am
forward-forward muni program we have that increase the service ublth by at least 10 percent. muni seems to enjoy a better relationship with the riding public these days and want to continue that investment, make sure that we continue to have free muni for elderly and for people with disabilities along with youth up to the age of 18. again, to also make sure that we instrest in the routes that make muni more efficient, gives people moving to the places of work or to their education or branch libraries in a more efficient way. this is just the may 1 budget with these 12 departments. the other departments that are general funds related will be part of our june 1 budget and we are working hard on that and we are making sure that we could
10:52 am
step up with the $246 million challenge we have. it is a deficit we have for the next 2 years and we'll bridge that without decreasing services in the general fund departments and we are working hard on that and will be ready to have a balanced budget by june 1 and beginning discussions with members of the board of supervisor so they know what we doing in a transparent way. we are holding community meetings and neighborhood meetings and meetings with the supervisors to get their input to see what the next budget will reflect. the budget is reflection of sth cities values and will continue reflecting that. we have been able tobalance our budget. my tum as mayor for the last 5 year jz continue doing so i fill unthe gaps and making sure the cuts that may come from the state or federal government we want
10:53 am
to reflect in the budget are taken care of, but other things whether they are homeless shelters improvement or navigation centers or affordable housing or challenges of affordability in general, i think the branch libraries is a huchblg contribution to the affordable because they are all free and safe and have the modern technology in them but also the books that we increase and the link to our public education system. they are linked to our neighborhoods they are strong. they are linked to even small businesses who may want to come in and take a respite from the small business and get on the internet and maybe open up a business they want it through the business portal, all that can hpen inl the branch libraries. with that, i want to say we are happy to initiate the may 1 budget of the 12
10:54 am
departments i & we are working hard to make sure the rest of the departments get the treatment deserve and will have announcements in the coming week. we are work wg the board sw neighborhood groups and can do this because we vastrong economy and we can do this because we are transforming our actually transporting the type of revenues we do so from evonets like the superbowls and the neighborhoods that need them and continue building strong neighborhoods. with that, i can take a few questions if you have them, the budget or anything else and then we'll go on. >> [inaudible] >> well, it is a old old library just like this was and the physical changes we identified in some of the paperwork we are passing out. they will
10:55 am
have-they are kind of behine the walls. they want more technology in the branch libraries and part of that will be upgrading the wiring system that is very old. we don't have room to expand so we actually have to comp sate for that limited space and make sure that all the spaces used and upgraded with wiring and new technology. we also will increase those hours in the library-like i said in all the branch libraries including chinatown that will have the library hours expanded as well. when i go out there it was very crowded and everyone uses them throughout the weekend so expanded the hours is also part the deal.
10:56 am
well, certainly muni has ever reason to do with transportation so one the programs that we supporting is called muni forward and that means increasing the services of muni by at least 10 percent . all the services include additional routes and includes improved routes and includes making sure muni moves deliberately on those routes in a safe way so it is very hard to get all the specifics but we can do so because it is part of the muni forward plan they approved. at the same time, they have some 30 vision zero projects. projects that will make the streets safer and engineered and designed to be safer. slow down traffic where the projects have pruben traffic going too fast and people are not taking the turns
10:57 am
in a safe way to cause safety challenges for pedestrians for seniors, all that is in the 30 additional projects we want to complete and want to do so i cost some 70 million dollars that is incraseed in the muni projeblths. and keeping muni free for seniors and people with disabilities and youth, that is all part of the budget as well. thank you. you get your room back kids!

11:03 am
population in the largest economy of any state in our nation we're also one of the most request energy efficient states compared to other states california ranks among the lottery in the nation both for per capital energy consumption and per capita spending it took a lot of work but california has shown you can embrace clean energy and cut green house gas emissions and at the same time grow our economy in fact, since 1990 california has cut its g h g emissions per capita by 25 percent and at the same time increased other energy by 37 percent how do we do those things because of leadership we have incredible leaders two of
11:04 am
whom you'll hear from today so, now let me ask the mayor of san francisco ed lee to come to the stage. >> mayor ed lee is mayor of a global city he's a global mayor he's worked hard to make san francisco one of the most of the welcoming alternate cleanest energy city in the united states of america we're proud of his leadership and proud of our friendship with him ladies and gentlemen, the mayor of the city and county of san francisco the honorable edwin lee. >> (clapping.) >> thank you, jim secretary and distinguished guests america's cup i'm 0 truly honored to be in the company of so many leaders around the world that share in the belief that
11:05 am
action only climatic change is necessary and utter will this gathering that the first step towards the implementation of the historic all the time many of the nations ♪ room drafted in paris last year when i attended the gathering of mayors at the the have and have not's con on climatic change france eloquent expressed a true economic california approach must respond to the cry of the earth and of the poor st. francis is the patriot saint we pride ourselves on a world-class and great city deficits and qualify and sustainability and social justice are all san francisco values those values drive our commitment to lead and act with
11:06 am
resolve only climatic change in san francisco we've reduced green house gas emissions 23 percent below the 1990 levels and we're proud of this especially considering our population as grown by 15 percent and our economy has grown by 49 percent over the same time period and as we grow we are growing sustainability sustainable we are productive first hand that solutions u solution to climatic change is a benefit all people of all income levels and in all neighborhoods still as a look around the room and this about drought and sea level rise and wildfires and conditions we've experienced in our own country's the truth is the impacts of climatic change
11:07 am
is have san francisco real city, state, or national boundary lines that's why we need to address the problem that is bigger us but we're each be contributing to while city's take up only 2 percent of landmass wear responsible for 40 percent of land use and global emissions what happens in city's truly changes the world for the better and worse as contributor to global climatic change the responsibility to address the problem also rests on our shoulder which is work i want to talk about the role that cities should play when it comes to climatic change in the environment and san francisco strategy to reduce our
11:08 am
aggressive is represented by 3 simple numbers, zero, 50, and one hundred >> zero waste to our landfills 50 percent of trips by methods other than cars, 100 percent renewable energy, let me briefly share with you awhile zero, 50 and 100 percent are important first zero waste the production transportation and disposal of our wastes comprise 42 percent of green house gas emissions in the united states recycling and compost mandatory in san francisco help cut this down by creating jobs and conserving resources zero waste is among the quickest and more cost fiscal strategies for governments to implements thanks to our residents and
11:09 am
business partners san francisco is an 80 are percent waste diversion rate today next 50 percent transportation. in 201043 percent of san franciscans san francisco's cash footprint came if transportation related emissions our country must move people out of cars and go mass transit and bikes and pedestrian trips in san francisco we're investing everyday in bike share and pedestrian network and our public transportation system and i'm pleased to report that san francisco reached the 50 percent at the end of counsel table just a few months ago years ahead of our schedule our challenge is now to main and grow that number finally 100 percent renewable energy just over half of our green
11:10 am
house gas emissions come from energy use in our city's commercial and residential buildings the birth cash source we have first, we need to use less energy to power and heat our buildings and second we need to change the energy supply and source for renewable power how were we accomplishing this we're leading by example we launched the city solar incentive that helped to install over 3 thousand three hundred solar installations and created green jobs along the way this program focus on empowering low income and the members to benefit for the city's growing economy has been especially successful we recently launched >> renewable energy program that offers san francisco residents and businesses an
11:11 am
electricity option cleaner then their existing energy and just as affordable san francisco is not the only city taking action too there are over 2000 actions teacher to reduce the building energy demand by over 46 cities and countries who ministers are representatives here today for example, to achieve the goals by 2020 the city of vancouver is on the neighborhood e neighborhood scale development a neighborhood strategy focusing on hi density areas of that city to improve heating and cooling services for those buildings the city of cop hasten has the goal of the first cash neutral capital in the world by the year 2024 and begun transforming the
11:12 am
district heating from cool and natural gas to sustainable bio mass 98 percent of cop happiness buildings are connected to the system when is one of the older of its kind the city of seoul in the represent of korea launched the project to reduce energy demands they oers low cost loans that cover 100 percent by increasing the krofrj from to 100 percent they saw an increase in loan if $4 million in 2012 to $20 million in 2014 and finally i would be remiss if i didn't recognition our own nation's capital in about washington, d.c. they entered into a 20-year power purpose agreement that supplies roughly thirty percent of d.c.
11:13 am
electricity for wind power the largest wind power of its kind and entered in by the american city and protected to save transpires that $45 million from over the next 20 years well, all of those examples illustrate judge industries are a crystal partner to advance clean energy solutions cities and states should be the focal point and leverage for the clean ministers to advance goals and have actions thanks to the advance and the sciences and technology from the private sector partners the intersection between the decashtion of energy and the economies is closer but advancement still requires investment and that's why i want to thank
11:14 am
our u.s. secretary monohe is and the department of energy for in their continued leadership of providing grants to the city attorney's office san francisco to scale up new clean energy technology in closing sniff you may know the charter of the united nations was actually signed into creation right here in san francisco in 1945 and a gathering of 50 nations that excluded over 8 hundred delegates rep 80 percent of the are worlds population imagined was put to paper and action to make the world a more peaceful place for all citizens i believe that 9 climate agreement forgot in parking garage the work today is just as historic it will be recognized as a time when our global community united to create and healthier future

11:18 am
regions the water reaches the tops of light poles and even the state capital is submerged on inauguration day the newly elected govern gets to the ceremony by row boat had the water resides thousand are dead and with an in every 8 homes ask ruined or carried out away that didn't sound evict a scrip for a bad hollywood movie all of that happened in california over the winter of the 18 61 and 62 thanks to a river storm it produced 43 days of rain in a row, in fact, every number associated with that event staggers the imagine not only a loss of life 200 thousand cattle and 29 percent of economy was
11:19 am
destroyed and built i the gold rush was driven into bankruptcy the land in denounced sacramento was raised 15 feet and the governor added an extra story to the mansion just in case what is truly mind-boggling 1 and 50 years later the lessons faded the supreme weather is not new we've seen education in california and around the world by climate says those episodes with increasing if density it and the rising global temperatures make them less predictable to unlike our predecessors in 18 61 we have the guest of understanding why this they come again. >> how much is at stake thanks
11:20 am
to the agreement struck in paris to pg&e power plan and the mo u we've taken steps to heed the warning of a century and a half ago i believe we can be successful over the next decades to create the solutions to stave off a global climate discharge in the government setting the right policies and individuals stepping up to do the right thing but even if i'm relevant that won't change at fact warm is unavoidable we'll have to contend with those the melting of the parlor i'll say sheet in for your or san francisco bay area more than 200 square miles are vulnerable to the sea level rise with the more powerful i'd like to surges a storm lasting a
11:21 am
few days can cost economics damages that's why at pg&e our focus on sustainability so the need to adopt to the climatic change to make your systems for resilient we're developing robust procedures and conducting a comprehensive assessment to vault storms and sea level rise as we see heat waves pg&e is among the utility that joined the partnering for climatic resilience to share best practices we've also commented 200 and $50,000 in stakeholders fund to protect and restore wetlands around san francisco bay area and provide to join with other corporate members of the abusing council and voluntarily supporting that with public
11:22 am
officials andville organizations we're now and then a new program to granted money to public-private partnerships to share the instantaneously for climate resilience and specifically one million dollars to support local planning throughout our service area to help community better understand plan four and respond to climate change risks some stisz have sophisticated plans underway others are getting starred or face problems those grants we can learn from and with a focus on disadvantaged areas where the resources are lacking we see this as ass our commitment in support of communities we serve now for me that mission has then e taken on a personal resilience
11:23 am
in the last 6 months i made two trips the first with governing california designation to the united nations climate change and part of geography to ann art can i cack with a faith in our ability to work collectively to solve this problem and i cack from ann articulate how crucial we fulfill that promise sooner than later a prominent research has seen temperatures rise 12 degrees in his years of working and paris made clear the world is looking to california for some of those answers and gave me the privilege to tell our story that about that success while much remains to be done a clean energy future is moving
11:24 am
faster they thanght ssible we made progress at pentagon this year we expect to deliver 33 percent from qualified renewables and when you include our large ohio plant under california laws don't fit the definition more than 45 percent is cash free light years ahead of most other places within the next 15 years we'll be approaching 70 percent as we meet the target of 50 percent renewables and one key to the progress is bold target by the policymakers and the wisdom of utilities as partners a critical part of this is reaching barriers probation officer notify solutions the utilities have the unique ability to
11:25 am
achieve and accelerate the use of low cash technologies and do so on the quick scale and demonstrated we can move renewable energy and drive down costs and keeping the grid reliable and customer bills down we can continue to do that if we work together with the right steps i think that 3 keys are crucial the first is continued investment in the grid the grid is the backbone of the economy and makes more than life possible the smallest grid it the backbone of a clean energy economy with more distributed intelligence online privately owned solar and electrical vehicles and the like the grid is more acceptable we see the grid that services what the internet don't say platform a network that pulls the energy
11:26 am
and integrate them to have more value for everyone the second key to the future adopting our empower right now the market forces are evolving faster the regulatory framework that largely is stuck in the year of thank god that stalls our progress for example, in the u.s. an ongoing debate in meter that is an attempt to put band-aids on a antiquated process we need to make a changes and indeed examples regulatory environment slows down not just limited to the energy spear for those of you who flew into san francisco you might have noticed
11:27 am
the span on the bay bridge the original part of that bridge is the part that is still standing and at the time that was built had the longtime suspected radios radio that is ahead of the grand jury designed is pencils and slide rules and built with more pleasantly labor than modern projects and took over 3 years to build the new span that is half as along with the engineering software and technologies and the crucial pieces are being reworked as we talk about the need for the infrastructure i'll life you to decide where this fraction can meet the climatic change and the third key comes from the spirit and letter of paris agreement to
11:28 am
keep the focus on recuse carbon rather than one particular mix of resources by doing that it gives the utilities and entrepreneurs the freedom to find the options and maximize innovation and provide consumers progress we know the issue of climatic change is no fixed address many of you come from far away's places with our history i'd like to offer a few points i hope you can take back to our home first, as a tackle the numerous challenges of clean energy and solving the low cash look to the utility sector as a solution this is an industry that is used to doing big things an industry that was designed to serve the public interest part
11:29 am
off dna we're good partners and the second as you look at those problems that need solving remember that we are more energy providers we can help with the resilice and clean transportation and we can help with public awareness and education utilities reach into every home additional business in your country we have relationship with millions in for the billions of customers and third look at the utilities in our areas as partners just as individual country's can't eliminate cash neither can we our industry is hunger for partnerships you can help to facilitate and nurture we'll continue to make progress offender climatic change we have to take advantage the utilities and all of us to work together to accomplish things in a big way but to unleaf this we'll
11:30 am
need the right policies the road to paris leads through this room and through all of you the decisions you make in the next few years shape the world for decades and essential to the ability of our country's to deliver on the promises it is your engagement in overseeing issues that assure that future is right and the stories like the california meg flood remain in the history books where they belong thank you very much. >> (clapping.) >> thank you, very much. tony, say with great confidence not a business leader utility leader or company that has shown greater commitment to clean energy and pg&e we appreciate our leadership so, now we will have a
11:31 am
high-level panel decision a sustainable urban systems so let me ask the panelists first welcome the executive director of international energy agency, mr. lien norris leader of petroleum and john first deputy mayor of china, and raphael gonzales the ceo of the north america inc. thank you for being you are here today enjoy the discussion. >> so ladies and gentlemen, i wish you, please enjoy the american lunch here while we're going to do discuss a few important issues before going to the panel which
11:32 am
is a very expressive panel as you can see i want to make a few remarks two racks one about the year 2015 and the second is a major report we are going to release in half an hour 2015 much has been perhaps the most incredible years in terms of the fight against climatic change not only because of paris i'll talk about paris in a moment two other reasons why i believe 2015 could be a wonderful year for the fight against climatic change one 2015 ladies and gentlemen, zero two emissions did not increase
11:33 am
like 2014 two years in a row we have seen zero emissions didn't increase even though global g dp increased more than 3 percent this has not been the case in the history we have seen only 3 times in the history when it didn't increase and all the 3 years is the financial crisis other than that for the first time two years in a right now 14 and 15 emissions remain the same good news now the year 2015 more than 90 percent of historical capacity the energy were renewable empowers and solar followed by other not the case
11:34 am
90 percent is impressive driven by china, u.s., europe and india and all other countries this is the second excellent news for 2015 and third was, of course, the power agreement i see the years in paris and he can assure you that paris the beautiful paris became much more beautiful after december 2015 i can assure i have many french they'll definitely agree with me and in paris in addition to the historical agreement there are two other important elements that needs to be underlined number one our agreements were agreement attempts it was not only a top down target but a button up all the countries
11:35 am
brought their targets their policies how their issues extremely important and second paris also brought new actresses into the picture in addition to governments we have now the businesses and act dam and others part of game and other actor is local governments the cities therefore the paris is not only the amendment of all the countries of the world by the moeshltd were extremely important and in my view down to earth now great paris this to our panel we are going to do present or publish a major report in a hour of time two things i want to tell you about this
11:36 am
this report focuses on a the progress in technologies we have a tasht in paris below two degrees and it is important to see how we are doing in different green energy technologies i'm not going to details you'll not lose your appetite we're not doing well there is some move a process but there are any areas we say are significantly lagging in our report highlights where we are progressing better than expectations with a target established in paris the second area the report focuses on the cities as already mentions about the 70 percent of the emissions come from the city 85 percent -
11:37 am
so if you want to solve this problem we have to solve the problem in the cities and the cities in our report they're two areas extremely important one the building be sector from the installation of the building to the for example, the cooling requirements which or go to psychopath in the next year's to come and what kind of cooling units we're going to use the standard is extremely important for fighting against climatic change the other area we look at the transportation we look into how we can see even a bigger move in terms of the electrical vehicles which one million cars another good news but much for electrical cars and
11:38 am
what are the favorable conditions but also the underlined the public transportation how to subsidize public transportation and the rest of the moves in the city we see in the beautiful city of san francisco but ladies and gentlemen, the main issue is the emerging countries cities which number of buildings built in the city and the buildings is 75 hundred years of time we should look into the future in the buildings which are not efficient so those are the issues that we deal with in our report maine the buildings and the transportation issue so we have now an clean out panel here one minister from the government and the mayor from the e merging country and the
11:39 am
company which is dealing with energies i will move to the panel and perhaps start to ask the gentleman the minister of norway mr. minister your country is the highest share of electrical cars in the world into the total car fleet in our country how do you see is measures put forward and what is it in the future so far as 20 percent if not share of cars in norway are electrical cars which compress the gloeshld average of unfortunately zero want one percent so how do you do that. >> mr. minister. >> thank you, dr. for your kind words and a moment to look
11:40 am
at in a moment in time negative impact 2012 the paramount decided the goal to have 50 thousand electrical vehicles and that goal was already xhoetsd last year and today 70 thousand fewer electrical vehicles and hybrids if we have hybrids bylaw but basically most of benefits were put in place already in 2002 and 3 and the car didn't take off until 2000 but not before 2011 and so what are the reasons i think the obvious reasons for things to happen in 2011 was the fact that there were cars on markets that were
11:41 am
really cars that could meet the needs of families in a safe manner you have the problem we're starting to address in a proper way to say a greater range in norway we have a power system like 8 percent renewable sources nobody in norway we're able to say okay. your changing our diesel car with pure renewables, of course, the tax and obviously of great importance a high new car sales tax for cars and however no new car sales tax for electrical vehicles of course, the same goes for petro and hardly any tax think renewable energy on the policy
11:42 am
on the basis there is free parking in cities free ferry rides, access to bus lanes and from the government does we have good strong efforts into building capacity we targeted isn't urban where most people live establishing with the transportation for everybody and now we're actually connecting the major cities in norway and this has led to this norway with 4 million people the second and the third largest market bean by the u.s. and china which has more people than norway as you can imagine and a
11:43 am
fiscal benefit the in fact, that is when it comes to fueling meets the connection from petro fueled cars which will forever have high taxation and a competition in the decades ahead but if i might add one thing before i leave the word back to you why do a tremors effort in reducing local pollutions reducing and co-2 emissions they come up justice department just as much space on the roads to have the basic strategy for ongoing electrical vehicles
11:44 am
instead of building public transportation system could be a wrong solution. >> thank you very much mr. minister for highlighting the critical role of public transport even though the cars are moving fast in terms of populating the global fleet and mr. minister said if you have to have electrical cars certain share of your car fleet we need policies and also some regulatory measures and very important as i mentioned mr. minister that in order to have an amount of benefits electricity fitting the car must be also clean otherwise the benefits may not be so obvious so i just mentioned that the
11:45 am
statistics are important for climatic change but the e engineering countries are important so we're very lucky the first deputy mayor of in china under jack and you mr. mayor have an excellent experience in our city of the pushing this smart upper public transportation and sustainable energy can you tell us how you realized what steps you took and whether or not the story you have in your city can be a model for other cities in china. >> thank you sorry don't speak good english
11:46 am
so i need a translator. >> (speaking foreign language.) >> i want to thank the california the governor of office for inviting us to attend this meeting the president of the china has made a commitment via the
11:47 am
unclimatic change in paris the reduction of cash emissions in china and now the whole country is taking action i'm very glad our city is very glad to endorse the mou and now under the leadership of the central government we are connecting with california we find the plan of actions with california and now we are promoting our policies closely. >> (speaking foreign language.) >> this is a city in east of china been shanghai the american female writers who is also the

11:49 am
actions. >> (speaking foreign language.) >> so our apart from the separate transportation we have conducted many efforts for the reduction of cash emission in the city and our efforts can be concluded from 5 perspectives. >> (speaking foreign language.) >> first, we set up the goal of achieving cash peak. >> (speaking foreign language.) >> at cop 21 pointed out that cashier emissions will peak in
11:50 am
around 2030. >> (speaking foreign language.) >> based on a scientific analysis and calculations it is one of the earlier city to achieving 10 years earlier than the national goal and average. >> (speaking foreign language.) >> preceding in the current situation we're confident it we have the ability to realize the goal. >> (speaking foreign language.) >> second we need the best
11:51 am
tools for the contractions how much the cashier emissions like drinking water we have to take sip one by one to know how much water we can drink. >> (speaking foreign language.) >> by using clot commuting i owe the technologies we segregate land use, environment and sources and industries and safety reduction and cashier emissions by doing so we can hanger and reexamine and check
11:52 am
the cash emissions reduction in the city. >> (speaking foreign language.) >> now we conducted realtime online monitoring over 48 key emissions companies in the city the total emissions is 80 percent of the cities total. >> (speaking foreign language.) >> during the past 5 years over three hundred chemical plans were shut down. >> (speaking foreign language.) >> nearly 11 towns of cashier emissions is reduced.
11:53 am
>> (speaking foreign language.) >> third, i think about apart from the activities of the business sector one important actress in the reduction of cash emission is people's livelihood. >> (speaking foreign language.) >> so the motorer mentioned buildings and transportation are very important factors in the reduction of cashier emissions. >> (speaking foreign language.) >> so we've taken 9 major actions to reduce the cash emissions in the city.
11:54 am
>> (speaking foreign language.) >> is action include optimizing the industry and encouraging the low cashier industries for production developing cash buildings and low cash incurs and low cash transportation for low cash development. >> (speaking foreign language.) >> so, now the low cash development and the awareness have come to - has been raised amongst the people.

11:57 am
your city's image as 2020 before the aggregate promise emissions this is one of the in my view most important outcomes coming from paris the architect of paris agreement and she was agreeing with me the peak in 2020 both the underlying agreement is critical to reach our goal now the other thick that is critical to reach you are goals within the energies in greece in the urban systems and the entering green power is one we're fortunate to have other green power with gonzales is with us and can you tell us about our sclernz how do you
11:58 am
merge the smart renewable and just the generation of models. >> okay. good afternoon and thank you for inviting me to participate first, let me explain the activity of urban power that is part of a viability and it is investing in renewables and investing in conventional duration that works and we we have activities in other places as well let's start to explain the our vision and strategy for how we are implementing these in the notifies in the renewables so our region is open power to solve the main challenges of the
11:59 am
world open power needs to supply energy to the people they don't have energy supplied. >> open power means a tool to be open to innovation and new technologies and to use this system technologies as well as on a different way in a way we have here in nevada an assembled combination of technology, solar tv and solar concentrated open power needs to find and open ways to manage the energy on a different way as well in relation to the demand and generation and to be open as well to paris so we can't build this by ourselves we need to have paris
12:00 pm
in this sense so how we approach what is the business model ♪ smart cities we're taken so our vision we are open to the scope and to the local initiatives so it is different for example, in mellone we have builds for the first time in the world the first smart city refell fill a city designed for one hundred thousand people supply renewable energy solar and we see the light systems as well as market the light systems and smart mobility and smart challenges and the system is implement to manage all this on
12:01 pm
the right way this is an assembly all assembles are depends on the local scope and the local needs we have all this examples in mellone another smart city by started almost 7 years ago so a combination of generation of solar as well and integrate these in a smart way and incorporate these on a different way and obtaining at the same time efficiency in the management of the grid the salesforce are important and in this instance sustainable we're doing the specific initiatives with sharing cars for example, and bus car in chillingly and
12:02 pm
electrical taxis in above the blue and windy sea to we're contributing utility on those different specific requirements and it is important ♪ sense the corporation with the place the local authority and government is very supportive on this sense we can't do this type of initiatives without the support and the engagement of the local activities the most - the locals say the local communities and consumers and so much it is necessary to solve with them this project so make it as sustainable and reliable and affordable thank you very much so ladies and gentlemen, we're
12:03 pm
at the end of this two things if i may undermine we understood the cities are extremely critical if we were to address our climate challenge number one and number 2 local governments we need to be bring a critical roll in terms of which measures then and how when it comes to buildings and when it comes to the transportation and when it comes to the electricity generation we've seen the minister show up how hi country increases cars and from the mayor how successful in emerging countries and how successful and seen from the ceo they agree and visit us and still make money if
12:04 pm
those 3 can do we can all do as well thank you very much and thank you >> (clapping.) >> thank you very much. >> thank you. >> thank you. >> thank you, sir and thank you panel it is very, very go back this is the conclusion of lunch program so at this point we'll be splilt into two groups if you're among the ministers you'll go to the room next door in the colonial room and the c e m along the tower thank you on behalf of the bay area council it is a pleasure to have you here in san francisco and the bay area hope you enjoy the lunch thank you very welcome t

12:12 pm
couple of things to talk about this morning the first is that last week i was in washington, d.c. with coalition for the national association on aging policy briefing and visit to capital hill i was there with a number of folks from california and formed the california coalition as a team talked about a lot of the issues no california specifically concerns about social security and what will happen in the future of social security we talked about medicare we talked about housing and how we might building that housing is part of health care an interval part and talked about being a nutrition and the food security and things like that to it was an interesting especially with the people when
12:13 pm
it was an interesting conversation he in particular is very concerned of the issues with the aging and department of aging & adult services and sent me materials that he is work on how to engage people gave me the american public in raising concerns about working with you know kind of the needs of older adults and sfugz his concern not enough attention 0 those issues we feel the concern it was interesting to here him and take on that issue how we might have better confusion with older adults an interesting visit and i've done this in the past with ann was not able to go and not always that hopeful on the other hand, there was a
12:14 pm
lot more talk about kind of funding streams and funding integration things that we're starting to work on in california a lot more conversations about those medicaid and mentioning with the national levels it was hopeful a lot more talk about in the past about elderly justice and the protection of the database so we know really, get a better understanding of the issues of elderly abuse in the country that was hopeful i will be running for a seat on the board of the national association of aging and the election will happen in july there are two seats from california i was asked by some southern california and the california association to apply to run because san francisco
12:15 pm
such an important player ♪ california we'll these how that goes >> when's the election. >> july. >> next thing i want to talk about supervisor wiener has put forth on ordinance to draft the language for lgbt data collection and the lgbt senior task force is involved in promoting the concept of data collection around lgbt demographics we can better serve the lgbt population in san francisco there will be battery on the language the supervisor thought all the departments that collects certain demographic information we'll collect that if our prospective since we've been down the road and thought about what that means milking how easy to get the information
12:16 pm
and the training needs and those kinds of things easier for daasw and on the departments to figure out the cost and the time commitment will be especially, when people are in the field working with clients there's certainly some training issues especially probation officer people that be inspector duffy rather than checking out the demographic information we as a city wants to make sure when that demographic information is collected it gets collected sensitivity so the staff understands what it is they're asking and the inspection and there will be adequate affiliation work to be done it is exciting and moving forward and certainly something that the lgbt senior task force has
12:17 pm
undertaken. >> one of the things i forgot to say about being in washington the president obama finally signed the oldest americans act and that was really a big celebration something that used to be rather performa but not in the paved if you years ago a lot of work on the hill trying to get legislators to really get on board it passed unanimously and went to the president but it was very hard i think that for those of you know the older americans act is the backbone of the speaks for itself the national funding and priorities for older adults that is important for us it gets passed and it did that's great the department has been working
12:18 pm
with the dignity fund coalition and the mayor's office around the dignity fund i'm sure there will be someone that will talk from the coalition prospective about that but interest is a real time crunch in terms of the language and i think that is the end of may that needs to be in so the department has a certain prospective on the language should be and the coalition side and the supervisors are weighing in and the mayor's office and the city of attorney's office there's a lot of there's a lot of moving parts to the legislation but hopefully getting closer to finalizing that and then want to say this afternoon at 1 o'clock is the adults budget hearing so it will be hsa and daasw and office of early care and education and
12:19 pm
presenting daasw budget it starts at 1 o'clock and the final thing i want to talk about the fair labors standard acts sanctions we talked about that you know the f l s a went into effect a couple months ago i asked staff they're working and getting information to people that have questions and progressing the information but this week the town hall went into effect people that violate the fair labor standards act by misstating their overtime the vision sanctions will go both effect we are waiting to see what that looks like we're haven't clear information how to handle those we'll know more but
12:20 pm
right now the staff a nervous we don't know how to handle that so more to come if that. >> i think that that concluded my report. >> any questions or comments. >> commissioiner ow. >> congratulations you are a commitment for what is it the july - >> oh, for the board of the national association of aging. >> how can we as a commissioner and you a nonprofit organizations to fund you and they're working with you for yaers and years incorporated how what walking can we lobby with the association. >> thank you, commissioner for that vote of support i think basically up to the board a national board so i don't think there is a role i wanted to let
12:21 pm
you know that is something i'll doing and so i'll just report back to you on how that goes. >> the the nonprofit can write a letter. >> in this case it is not i think that is not necessary but thank you. >> i tried. >> thank you. >> thank you. >> the next item on the agenda is the advisory report by smith. >> good morning and executive director congratulations they choose the right person (clapping.) >> the advisors council met on wednesday april 20th, 2014, and introductions were made to the council of our 3 just advisory council members taylor and

12:37 pm
premature institutiontion specifically for adults with disabilities so during this six months report a couple of new items we want to direct your attention the first the lgbt demographics that will we asked about the last time period during this period it was a new field we were polling on at 8 percent and the 3 percent is a typo it is 8 percent of this time period and half of the referrals were missing the sexual organize data we are working trying to get this we're looking at a different way to don't there will be cleaner next week and the two performance measures we're reporting on the first one the percent of the clients with one or fewer
12:38 pm
planned acute hospital readmissions within a six months o month period with the ouch the money management cases and the goal of 80 percent for the 6 month period we exceeded at 93 percent of clients having one or fewer admissions this is the first time we've reporting the measure we'll monitor to see from the threshold needs to be raised or evaluate the second performance the care problems resolved on average one year after enrollment and exclude the clients the goal a 80 percent it was 55 percent of the service items were resolved or transferred after one year and substantive have less than one
12:39 pm
hundred of the care plans with the ongoing care needs this is the first time we're looking at the indicator it shows we need more training with staff what happens the care managers will update the care plan the year after during the reassessment wear pulling this data we're asking staff to kind of do it on an ongoing basis to so 6 months will accurately show what was going on that's sort of the main two highlighted with this period any questions you can ask now. >> any questions or comments commissioner loo. >> on page 2 oh, page 4 the paragraph submit the changes effecting the co s the second
12:40 pm
paragraph for 2015-2016 the money didn't come before december do you have to spend the money can the money be carried over if you have to spend it what kind of programs. >> the money can be carried over so right now the past couple of months building the infrastructure to manage the money effective and building contracts so one of the main things if so down the scatter site housing was updated in february of 2016 so, now there are 12 unit for those and not a lot but we're doing specifically targeting this and really looking at the people that have the highest needs for the skaufrt housing for example, and the other thing ear doing a care coordinator position that is looking for people having a
12:41 pm
purchase only need that don't need case management that one person is kind of managing all the purposes and doing it expedited segment so we can spend the money like the whole modifications so we're looking at ways to spend that money efficiently we know in this year this was an increase of threshold funding we have in the next 4 years to kind of manage this money so we expect a down curve we needed time to ramp up and time to ramp down after the contract. >> commissioner loo. >> another one section one one i'm looking at the average monthly climb to donna and look at the december 15th the number
12:42 pm
is its that number but down there it is a donna $908. >> are you following me. >> no. i'm not sure where you're at. >> all kind of dollars near the become. >> uh-huh. >> when you look at across december 15th is it $908. >> i had the 55. >> no commissioner. >> other people am i looking at the. >> the spreadsheet the bottom right corner almost to the bottom.
12:43 pm
>> almost to the bottom actually. >> at the bottom. >> okay. so what's the question. >> why the number is to high compared to other months. >> good morning planning with the human services agency the number has increased because in this reporting period the transitional care program is no longer active that served a large number of clients and in prior months that reduced the average program we have a smaller denominator and that's why it is increased from nine hundred to $900 a month. >> thank you. >> thank you. >> any commissioiner ow. >> yes. this program initially
12:44 pm
giving the patient in the laguna and transfer them to a community home setting now that this program run for quite a few of the years there's not many laguna honda evaluations into a community home setting my question is where is our patients come from you know you taking care of so many patients where you pick up them. >> so the few look at 31 percent of the referrals are from laguna honda it is a different population the folks the population demographics are different and extend to other places to look at kind of the highest across the board and focus on one specific facility.
12:45 pm
