Staff and speakers from the state and from other scientific fields will be here to address you in a moment. But there is no better place for the Solar Industry than to really come together and meet right here in our great city. We are home to more than 19 megawatts of solar installation, and over 21 1 Clean Tech Companies that are driving innovation for the rest of the world right here in San Francisco ~. We are bold, and were not afraid to be bold. Thats why we are moving to 100 Renewable Energy in our city. We want to reduce our carbon. We want to green our buildings. And we want to become a mecca for clean transportation. This year we are proud to be the number one spot on the clean edge u. S. Metro clean tech index for all cities in the continental united states. Our city has launched effective and powerful solar programs, and weve set an ambitious Clean Energy Goal of having 100 citywide electricity come from renewable sources within the next 10 years. In the past decade, weve alr
President or attorney general whoever we need to take a lee good look at justice at the end of day well go insane if we dont get some kind of justice. Thank you. Next speaker, please im going to get to know how to. Excuse me. Sir, can you speak into the microphone. I need to know how to show the document. If you step up the document will be under the light. Greeting to everyone. I want to let everyone know that my mission is life so truth and rightness and im going to call names. And this has to do with the recent june committee and supervisor breed im going to single you out.

Probably the biggest incentive that has ever been provided. But over the years times change, but still california at that time was leading the way in solar and building efficiency, and then very shortly after 1982 promulgated appliance efficiency standards. So, we did get the sense of Renewable Energy, efficiency, elegance in the way we handle resources. Today, of course, we know a lot more. We know about Climate Change. We know about population, several billion more. We know if the demographers are right, the world will add 2 billion people. We now have 2 billion cars. The last time there were a couple hundred million cars. In fact, cars are reproducing faster than people. [laughter] and as long as theyre using oil weve got a problem. Thats why in california we have a goal to have a million electric vehicles by 2025. applause so, thats just within the last two months, we actually recorded over 2000 megawatts of solar energy being put into the grid, which is more than [speaker not unde
Surrounding yourself with artists, being in a culture where artists are driving, and where a huge amount of them is a healthy environment. You are making it safer. Push, push. That is better. When i start thinking, i see it actually sometimes, i do not see it, but when i do, it is usually from the inside out. It is like watching something being spawned. You go in, and you begin to work, excavate, play with the dancers, and then things began to emerge. You may have a plan that this is what i want to create. Here are the ideas i want to play with, but then, you go into the room, and there maybe some fertile ideas that are becoming manifest that are more interesting than the idea you had initially set out to plan. So there has to be this openness for spontaneity. Also, a sense that regardless of the deadline, that you have tons of time so the you can keep your creativity alive and not cut it off and just go into old habits. It is a lot like listening. Really listening to watch what is goi
applause well, thank you and welcome to california. Its a great place to come and talk about solar energy because we are in the forefront of certainly the rest of the states, probably in fact, certainly in the western hemisphere, california is in the lead. And thats important. But being in the lead doesnt mean weve arrived at the goal. Got a long way to go and i hope the work you do here, the conversations, the relationships that are formed can help advance the cause of solar energy and Renewable Energy or generally. Back when i was governor the first time, that was a long time ago some of you folks werent even born then not too many. I see a few gray hairs here who are hanging around. That was a long time ago, 38 years ago, as a matter of fact. Very few people get to be governor 38 years after they first started. [laughter] with a 28year hiatus. applause so, i guess i have to expiate my Many Political sins and i spent time in the wilderness. But i am back and i can reflect on how poli
