because of that, i believe that because of cal's influence, san francisco's environment department and the city of san francisco became the first city to say we cannot, in california, to say we can't meet our climate objectives without clean power sf. so that is just -- i'm sure you've already heard many stories about how cal got things done and that was just one of the things that he got done. he made sure the clean power sf got off the ground and the city took a stand to show how important it was. to me, you know, in this time of crisis, the people that matter are the people that get stuff done. they move the ball forward. cal was one of those people. good on him. >> thank you.

san francisco values. today i'm introducing a legislation to update and strengthen our plastic bag ordinance. in 2017, my former boss introduced the first single-use plastic bag ban country and later to make san francisco the first california city to introduce the check-out bag charge. we've been leaders when it comes to plastic and zero waste and yet we're still drowning in single-use plastics. last year at the global climate action summit, san francisco committed to cut waste and send to the landfill by 50% by 2030. yet, here and across the country, waste generation is on the rise. san francisco generates $3 million tons of waste a year and despite our efforts today, this amount continues to grow. we're recycling and composting the majority of the waste but cannot achieve our zero waste goals if our consumption continues to grow. the statistics are shocking. americans use approximately 100 billion plastic bags per year. that's a hard number to even wrap your head around. 100 billion a year. what it does that quam eq walls to the number of stars in the milky way and number of newt ron in the human brain and number of humans ever lived. only 1% of plastic bags ever get recycled and they end up in our bay and ocean. we need to s

so in 2011, the city and san francisco became the first city in san francisco and one of the first and the nations to require commercial buildings over 50,000 square feet, actually over 10,000 square feet, we went to very small buildings, to measure their energy consumption, and then report it to the department of the environments. this became important for two reasons. number 1, you gave a signal to the building owner whether energy use was other buildings, equally as important, he gave the department of environment that information, we could focus our limited resources and energy efficiency on buildings that really needed it. this was a very forward looking idea back in 2011, and we are focusing just on commercial buildings at that point in time. so how does it matter it turns out, this is a graph that is rough in terms of the nuance of it, but what's important here is the trends, what you can see looking at the blue line is employment in san francisco, and the ratline is the energy use, at a buildings effect very closely and benchmarking. the trend is exactly how you want it. as emp
