the undergrounding of utilities, fiber is a separate issue. we can have the discussion on the fiber side of what we're looking at, but the nonfiber side, that is all done by pg&e, they control that process and the city doesn't actually do that work. we ask them questions, i know the citizens have some questions about what's going on with undergrounding and what the costs really are and no one's dug deep into it and lafco has that ability to dig deep into the pg&e numbers of what's going on and trying to make sure that the numbers that say it costs x number of dollars to do is really the cost for san francisco to do the process. the dig once was my personal thought process if there's ways to save money by digging once we could piggyback on what supervisor -- that would be done at the board level. all i would do is come back and say, yes, there are costs that can be saved by digging once. if we combined let's say sf puc's sewer and water, if it saves us money what my report at that point would say we should have the city and pg&e should partner

there is a cool story about this underground bunker. so, when the bombs were bursting in air, there really was no underground bombproof. every soldier, every defender was totally exposed to the shrapnel of the british bombs. when the british sailed away, all the damage of the fot waxs quickly repaired -- -- the fort was quickly repaired. there was a fear that the british would come back. the fort was strengthened. one of the biggest issue was this bombproof. this was billed weeks after the battle. if the british did come back with those bombs, the defenders could bunker down. fort mchenry remains an active military post for almost 100 years after the battle baltimore. in the 1830's when the army decided to improve fort mchenry, they expanded the bombproof into this chamber back here. this is one of my favorite rooms. even the other was no battle, because it is original. this room was built in the 1830's. you could put almost the whole garrison into these. you could see it could accommodate more men. they had large air ducts. or you'd ha

one possibility is to put the carbon dioxide back where it came from -- in underground rock formations. the midwest regional carbon sequestration partnership is investigating this strategy which will help mitigate the effects of the continued use of fossil fuels for energy. renewable energy sources are another option. and in golden, colorado, the natural renewable energy laboratory is trying to scale up processes for creating biofuels from the products of american farms their goal is to supply up to a third of the country's gasoline needs within 25 years. both projects are pushing the limits of modern science in hopes of leading the way to a more sustainable energy future. 40% of the world's electricity comes from coal. coal is the fossilized remains of ancient vegetation. and with global reserves that could last over 250 years it is the cheapest and most abundant nonrenewable energy source available. but burning coal produces exhaust products including not just water vapor which is most of what we see coming out of smokestacks, but also carbon dioxide, an invisible greenhouse gas that
