today, we'll focus on the sustainable trips goal. what is a sustainable trip? it's anyone but one resident in one car. it's an effort to get residents to taking walking, biking, or public transit or a combination of all of those. this year at the community public breakfast mayor mark farrell made the announcement that in just five years, san francisco had reached its goal of 50% sustainable trips. the mayor went onto announce that the city's new goal would be 80% sustainable trips. today, we will hear presentations from the department and our sister agencies from citywide and regional efforts to achieve a transportation system that creates less pollution and helps solve our climate crisis. thank you all at the department staff and to our sister agencies for making it out today. the country transportation authority is represented by executive director killy chan and san francisco transportation agency is represented by senior planner tim doherty. i want to say up front how much we appreciate your hard work and collaboration. let's do this, and if there's any pub

it's been a very good first step towards sustainability.ot sustainability, it's the commitment to pay premium price to the coffee which is the same that you would pay less on the marketplace. so it's kind of a market distortion which the consumer by seeing a label believes that the coffee has paid a fair price, but unfortunately, these expectations did neither create a huge consumption because most of the consumers buy the coffee not for the quality but because it's fair trade. so they tend to kind of limit their choice to sometimes, not always, you know. you take your preferred coffee and sometimes you take fair trade one. and on the other side, the expectation that it created with growers may create an oversupply. the problem is now there's too much certified coffee and the premium became very, very thin. so this is why the system is a little bit broken unfortunately. and we have to look ahead into certification schemes which are more sophisticated, really certifying the sustainability of the supply chain. not only solidarity. francine: u

economic lead but is it really something that people would want to sustain i'm not saying it's sustainable i'm just saying they have a resource consumption that is replicable world wide. still with that amount of resource if achieved quite long lives and high levels of education not so high income i'm not saying they have that's kind of the overarching goal i've been perusing other example would stare but i think the overall question for humanity is how can we have all high human development while still living within the means of this one planet and there are great opportunities to move in this direction we just haven't applied just haven't employed innovation to make that happen we use most innovation to use more to have bigger cars heavier the cars bigger houses etc rather than to use it for how to live better on this planet and if we can continue on that track of just using more we undermine our ability to have great lives for everybody so it's possible that everybody could get there but i thought our goal currently for humanity but i wonder if one of the implications of the every cuban

with that, a little bit deeper dive on that 80% of sustainable trips. so for that climate action goal as president bermejo already stated, sustainable trips are everything aside from pretty much a single occupancy trip so things like walking, biking, taking public transit or in our case for this presentation, carpooling. so one of the ways that sf environment does this outreach is through our safe routes to school partnership. as you can see here, we definitely do not do this work alone. there are many partner organizations, community organizations as well as city agencies that are part of this coalition working to promote healthy and active ways to get to and from school and also after school programs. so department of public health, m.t.a., sfusd, walk sf, san francisco bike coalition, why bike, tenderloin safe passage, which we heard about all earlier, and m.t.a. all funded through the county transportation authority. so why do we want to talk about carpooling? in the past several years, the department of environment has really taken an active role i

we must fund projects that are economically sustainable.and social standards. there are countries like malaysia who are pulling out of the belt road initiatives altogether, it is the keeping other countries wary of being involved and the debt involved. how is the aiib trying to address that? it is for countries like malaysia to deal with their own bilateral nations. malaysia is an important number of the aiib and if we we re important number of the aiib and if we were financing projects there like any other country, one of the key test that we apply is that the school and financial sustainability of our projects. we have strict rules on those issues, like the world bank or the asian development bank and we have a very similar practice. to make sure that we understand what is the sustainability, how can a project be repaid before we embark on financing? that ensures that over the years, as we build up our project portfolio in many countries, that it project portfolio in many countries, thatitis project portfolio in many countries, that it is

that is how they sustained them. also, the question about texas for in hood's gate, the army of northern virginia was about one third of the army listed as deserted. from the start of the war to the end of the war, only 6% of men were listed as deserters. 6%. of the 6%, 34% abandoned. for those of you who studied for score, that's when they were detached from northern virginia. they were in east tennessee and horribly undersupplied. they were miserable being detached from the army of northern virginia. the brigade commander was facing charges of demoralizing the men and facing court-martial. it was a difficult time for the men, but, overall throughout the war 6%, was incredibly low. , it speaks to the cohesiveness and devotion of the men. alright, now, i promised you we would look at the question of the home front. the men came from families that either financially could support them or could just soldier on, if you will, while the men were gone or they could count on other members of the brigade for help. one of the

the president said he wants a sustainable return to the moon. he does not want to re-create apollo with flags come of footprints, and in 1972 after our six landing, we came home and never went back. he does not want to do that. he wants a sustainable architecture and to utilize the resources of the moon, the water ice i mentioned. there could be, and we don't know, but there could be rare earth metals on the moon. we talk about rare earth metals on the earth. those are not earth metals at all. those are asteroid impacts from a billion years ago or more. the moon has the same marks on the moon, but does not have active geology. the hydrosphere is less active than earth can which means there could be massive deposits of rare earth metals, but that could be on the moon as well. we need to prospect the moon and understand it. know.is a lot we don't from 1969 until 2008, most people believe that the moon was bone dry. the indians made a discovery there is water ice. therenasa discovers that are hundreds of billions of tons of ice. that should change

[film advance clicking] man: in madagascar, we have more than 5,000 kilometers of coast, and a lot of fishermen communities. it's forbidden to fish sea cucumber with dive materials to preserve the species. but there are many foreign investors that came here that pay the young malagasy people to fish sea cucumber with a bottle of gas, etc. the chinese came here and, as usual, they tried to offer infrastructures like roads, and as a counterpart, they want to be authorized to exploit natural resources. there is a very huge upsurge of these practices now, and it's a big threat to the natural resources, to their sustainability, and the environment in general. [man speaking native language] day: we believe that fish stocks are declining for multiple reasons, one of them being access to international markets. a lot of people in europe, a lot of peopl
