    California’s housing shortage - including our failure to allow enough housing near jobs & transit - forces long commutes & increases carbon emissions. To solve climate, we must solve housing. Here’s a piece in today’s @nytimes I authored with @dan_kammen.https://www.nytimes.com/2019/03/25/opinion/california-home-prices-climate.html …

        And most of all public transport. Coming from Switzerland I was shocked to experience the lack of a functional public transportation system in the Bay Area during my sabbatical at UC Berkeley last fall. It's a waste of energy and time if commuters have to resort to cars.

        Switzerland is not ruled by anti tax zealots who view cities as a problem to be eliminated.

        Think of all the emissions and driving hours saved when just one person is able to live within a walkable neighborhood.

        We need to keep pressing this point against NIMBY resistance.

        How can the majority be locals if you don't build enough housing?

        The costs in Oakland to change a commercial property to residential is ridiculous. The city should encourage and support this transition.

        "some of those units" sez Senator. You rarely answer questions in detail. NYtimes opED is developer/YIMBY marketing. We all wanna limit long commutes, add more housing..but will new units be 50% affordable? Decent SQ ft? Boost transit budget? @sf4sfsite https://drive.google.com/file/d/1hcBzItW6EzI1PLsXc3kqrjf7zna3rJ6y/view?usp=drivesdk …pic.twitter.com/DK91lbG5j7
