we take more than any other city, we take more homelessness, more homeless shelters. one of the things i want to find out, in san francisco, we have the highest percentage of subsidies of housing, to my knowledge, of any place in the united states. we have looked at red control, the amount of affordable housing, senior housing, and veterans' housing that we have in stock, i think we need to see the data. every time i think of the 555 washington, $15 million of affordable housing, and the project was killed for whatever the reasons were. i guess the key the general public has to understand is we do more than anybody else in the bay area, and i think pressure needs to be pushed by our state legislators and the assembly saying, hey, we take our fair share, none of the other bay area counties have homeless shelters. we take them. i think the key is we need to let the public know and the bay area know, when are you going to pick up the slack we have taken up? i know for a fact we have more affordable housing units in san francisco that i think the whole bay area combined. y

but leed, the leed certification that has allowed san francisco to have the toughest standards of any city in america. we take this very seriously, not just because we're concerned about our global footprint in the context of our local footprint, not just because we believe that the issue of global climate change is real and is now more real than ever. and by no means has gone away just because you had a cold, cycle, where everyone decided it was over. we also recognize the jobs component of this. let me give you brief specific factual example. you put $1 billion -- take $1 billion, and you invest in a cole plant, you'll create about 870 jobs. it sounds fine until you consider you could take that same billion dollars and put it into a nuclear plant and generate about a thousand to 1,500 jobs on the high end. but if you get in the renewable energy business, you take that billion dollars and put it into solar, you generate 1,900 jobs, but the big game-changer is in greening buildings. when you renovate, when you take buildings like this and their legacy systems and you convert them with more

this process the mayor has made it clear if we are going to have a sister city relationship with any city, it needs to be meaningful, not in name only. in these economic times, it makes sense for cities like san francisco to reach out to places like barcelona. if you look at the history of what has happened between not just the cities of barcelona and san francisco, and the region of catalonia and san francisco, it makes sense. we established a region sister russia shed with the region of catalonia. i want to thank the group freinds of gaspart. the president of the organization could not be here but they have been trying to foster relationships, not just between san francisco and barcelona, but the entire region. the mere talk about the commonalities, the economic ties. there are many other ties. there are works between the museums in barcelona and the de jong. there are talks about the universities in barcelona with ours. sharing production with the our pride in barcelona. there are many examples of that nature. but something that is special to me, as a gay man, and i see my partner in t

the streets of baghdad are finally starting to feel like the streets of any middle eastern city. but that newfound sense of security here is pretty fragile. now the u.s. is pulling out its combat troops, many iraqis we speak to here say they're pretty nervous that the iraqi security forces won't be able to keep that peace. like it or not, the iraqis have begun to depend on the american troops. >> they really give us a help, you know? when things get bad in baghdad and any city in iraq, when they leave, i don't know who will help us. >> reporter: general odierno who himself leaves iraq on september 1 after a total of 56 months here is optimistic. but with more than 4,400 u.s. deaths and more than $700 billion of u.s. taxpayers' money, he is still not ready to declare victory. was it worth it? >> they say to everyone we won't know probably for three to five years. because if nothing else, we got rid of a tyrannical dictator who will no longer be able to terrorize the iraqi people. >> reporter: although all u.s. troops are due to leave iraq by the end of 2011, some iraqi officials,
