Liccardo, Schaaf and Ting vs. Global Warming

Sam Liccardo, Mayor, San Jose
Libby Schaaf, Mayor, Oakland
Phil Ting, California State Assemblymember (D-19)

Three political heavyweights from the Bay Area will discuss what needs to be done to protect the region from rising tides and temperatures. The June ballot in all nine counties includes Measure AA, which would charge property owners $12 apiece to restore wetlands safeguarding Silicon Valley and beyond. The Howard Jarvis Taxpayers Association says the measure is unnecessary. The Silicon Valley Leadership Group and elected officials say it is insurance against rising tides that threaten tech campuses near the Bay. What else are cities and counties doing to prepare for floods, droughts and other severe weather happening in the Bay Area with increasing intensity and frequency?

Be part of the conversation with a chance to ask your own questions of these Bay Area leaders.
