thank you. >> my name is gwenn mcallen. i'm here on behalf of the san francisco sierra club chapter. we have 30,000 members in the bay area. i have been advocating for clean power sf for over five years. i'm eager to see it finally implemented. san francisco has a chance to do something truly sitting about global warming, to set the example for the rest of the country. as a coastal city we face the risk of flooding for the sea level rise and severe weather which puts our future in jeopardy. fossil fuels are not only putting our home in danger but jeopardizing the health, safety and lives of people around the world, especially poor countries that don't have the resources to do anything about it. san francisco does have the resources. we have a president barack obama -- we have a program ready to go. they will provide resources and make people proud in a city actively * striving. the clean power sf will run san francisco on at least 50% clean energy by the end of the decade putting us on track to reduce emissions to zero by m

hi, gwenn. >> hi, maureen. you probably felt the winds pick up a little bit today. but other than that, very, very pleasant. let's look at the maps and show you what is happening. satellite radar composite here, not much going on and a few clouds pushing their way through across areas of the south but they will be out of the way before too long and basically some clear skies in the course of tonight. and the current temperatures, it is a very mild 67 degrees right now. at reagan national airport. 60 at baltimore. 63 degrees at annapolis. and 58 through to the south at fredericksburg and 56 at dulles. not bad at all. pretty comfortable over the next course of the 24 hours or so. 57 degrees the overnight low. a lot cooler for the area of the western 'burbs. in the low as, and give or take a degree or two. and cooler in the mountains. partly cloudy and clearing skies through the course of tonight. sunday is looking absolutely pleasant for you. happy to enthe weekend that way but the week ahead, we have some changes in the forecast. and i will have that coming up later

as you have heard from gwenn previously, as you might expect, we are completely in favor of this. urge you adopting it. not to go over board but this is probably one of the most important vote you will ever do. people talk about the sky falling. well, it is falling. climate change is very real. there is nothing scare yer in this world. we are seeing incredible droughts in the midwest affecting our food crops. this is not the only time this will happen. we are seeing incredible floods and storms. there's nothing more threatening to our civilization than climate change. the only way we address it is by reducing our dependence on coal and fos it is fuels. we have a chance now to take an unprecedented step of going for 100% green energy. no one else is doing that. marin was the first cca, but they have a mix. we appropriately as san francisco are moving forward 100% green energy. it is the only way we will solve this problem. it is already too late to make a change from where we are. if we don't do anything, your kids, your grandkids are going to face a world we can't imagine. that wi
