because we know, and certainly everyone today here knows when cities and states lead on climate, nations soon follow. so i want to thank and acknowledge mayor breed today for her leadership leading up to the summit and also for her long and deep commitment to the city's environmental goals. even from her early days on the board of supervisors, and when she was board president, she never waivered from her commitment to do the right thing for the environment. she was instrumental in seeing the city's cleanpowersf program launched. and i watched her standup to the packaging industry, to the pharmaceutical industry, to reduce pollution and protect our bay. she authored and championed the nation's strictest ban on styrofoam and then she went after the pharmaceutical manufacturers and held them accountable for the tons of unused medications that we generate in our homes each year. as mayor, i know she will continue to forge a bold path forward around climate action and environmental protection for our city. so with that, please join me in welcoming mayor london breed.
