"content": "\u003cp>A foul-mouthed longshoreman named Frank Gaskin pointed his phone at a chain link fence at the Port of Long Beach last summer and made a video of the robots that had taken his and his buddies’ jobs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the video, flatbed carts glide by carrying cargo containers around the dock. They’re self-driving, guided by computers and magnets beneath the pavement. As one passes soundlessly near the fence, Gaskin yells, “f— you automation mother f—–!”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At 21 of the 22 docks at the Port of Long Beach, most of the work of loading and unloading cargo from containers ships is still done by people, not by robots. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Long Beach Container Terminal, which opened in April 2016, is an exception. It requires two-thirds fewer workers than traditional terminals. And that frightens the International Longshore and Warehouse Union, which controls all the jobs at the docks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Note: This video contains profanity.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fvrPcgM5cH4\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But viewed from another perspective, automation is part of the solution to one of Southern California’s most vexing environmental problems: the worst air pollution in the country.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Diesel trucks and equipment are the largest contributors to that air pollution, and the ports are the largest single source of those emissions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the automated carts at the Long Beach Container Terminal run on electricity, which can be generated by natural gas or renewable energy. Look closely as the cart nears Gaskin’s camera, and you can see the words, written in bright white letters on a green background, “zero emissions.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gaskin captioned his video: “Automation in Long Beach Container Terminal will hurt everyone.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But what if automating is also a way to help everyone by cleaning the air and fighting climate change?\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Where People Run the Port\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>To understand how radically different the Long Beach Container Terminal is, you first have to visit a traditional terminal, where people control each piece of equipment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gary Herrera, the vice president of the ILWU Local 13, took me on a tour of the Everport Terminal at the Port of Los Angeles.

That’s even though the ports move more than 14 times as much cargo.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The ILWU’s founder, Harry Bridges, started preparing for automation in the 1950s. At that time, “automation” came in the form of containers that replaced individual bales, bundles and boxes of goods to be shipped. The containers carried more cargo and required fewer hands. Bridges signed an agreement with the terminal operators allowing that, but he did so only after ensuring his members got higher pay and pension guarantees.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And any new equipment they used would have to be operated by union workers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Even if it comes down to one person pushing one button to run a whole port,” Bridges reportedly said, “that person will be union.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That agreement largely remains in place, and ILWU members are among the best compensated blue-collar workers in the U.S. They receive an average salary of $155,000 a year, pay almost nothing for their health insurance, and get up to six weeks of paid vacation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The longshoremen owe their leverage to the fact that, unlike factories and auto plants, ports cannot be outsourced.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Where Machines Run the Port\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Ports can also be run by machines and computers, and, increasingly, robots.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>My tour with Herrera continued as we headed across a towering bridge toward the Port of Long Beach and the Long Beach Container Terminal. Herrera’s mood changed as he looked across the water and saw remotely operated cranes and self-driving trucks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ciframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https://giphy.com/embed/l0HUkguLk0Afp8LfO\" width=\"800\" height=\"400\" frameborder=\"0\" class=\"giphy-embed\" allowfullscreen>\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://giphy.com/gifs/l0HUkguLk0Afp8LfO\">via GIPHY\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It makes me sick to my stomach,” he said, tightening his hands on the steering wheel. “I look at this place, and I do not like what it stands for. These machines get rid of men.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I’d tried for weeks, unsuccessfully, to get into the Long Beach Container Terminal on my own. I even got so far as to get their president, Anthony Otto, on the phone. He agreed to show me around, but said I couldn’t record any audio, take any pictures, or quote him.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Then, the morning of the tour, he canceled. “It’s a sensitive time for us,” he said, referring me to his PR firm for further explanation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The firm didn’t return my call.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Officials with the ILWU can enter the terminal at any time and bring guests. Herrera had invited me to come along.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He drove us into the terminal, and we stopped in front of LBCT’s 48 stacking cranes. They load containers onto semi-trucks that haul them out of the port to distribution warehouses.

That’s even though the ports move more than 14 times as much cargo.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The ILWU’s founder, Harry Bridges, started preparing for automation in the 1950s. At that time, “automation” came in the form of containers that replaced individual bales, bundles and boxes of goods to be shipped. The containers carried more cargo and required fewer hands. Bridges signed an agreement with the terminal operators allowing that, but he did so only after ensuring his members got higher pay and pension guarantees.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And any new equipment they used would have to be operated by union workers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Even if it comes down to one person pushing one button to run a whole port,” Bridges reportedly said, “that person will be union.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That agreement largely remains in place, and ILWU members are among the best compensated blue-collar workers in the U.S. They receive an average salary of $155,000 a year, pay almost nothing for their health insurance, and get up to six weeks of paid vacation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The longshoremen owe their leverage to the fact that, unlike factories and auto plants, ports cannot be outsourced.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Where Machines Run the Port\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Ports can also be run by machines and computers, and, increasingly, robots.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>My tour with Herrera continued as we headed across a towering bridge toward the Port of Long Beach and the Long Beach Container Terminal.

These machines get rid of men.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I’d tried for weeks, unsuccessfully, to get into the Long Beach Container Terminal on my own. I even got so far as to get their president, Anthony Otto, on the phone. He agreed to show me around, but said I couldn’t record any audio, take any pictures, or quote him.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Then, the morning of the tour, he canceled. “It’s a sensitive time for us,” he said, referring me to his PR firm for further explanation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The firm didn’t return my call.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Officials with the ILWU can enter the terminal at any time and bring guests.

As research comes out, we’ll be happy to make changes indicated.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The research to date has already compelled the league to make some changes.

Researchers have subsequently confirmed CTE in more than 100 deceased NFL players. Will Smith played Omalu in the 2015 film “Concussion.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s very basic common sense,” said Omalu. “There is no safe blow to the human head.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Despite efforts to improve the safety of football helmets, he argues that the danger cannot be prevented with any helmet currently in existence.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“A child, after one game, could suffer permanent brain damage,” said Omalu. “After just one season of football, your child could suffer permanent brain damage.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s why Omalu believes only people over 18 should play contact sports. Adults could still suffer serious damage, but they’re old enough to consent to the risk, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Football is a good sport, an exciting sport for adults who want to play,” Omalu said, while adding, “we need to protect our children.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11648127\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11648127\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/02/PeterBoehm-800x600.jpg\" alt='Peter Boehm, 14-year-old quarterback of the Pop Warner L.A.

Adults could still suffer serious damage, but they’re old enough to consent to the risk, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Football is a good sport, an exciting sport for adults who want to play,” Omalu said, while adding, “we need to protect our children.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11648127\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11648127\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/02/PeterBoehm-800x600.jpg\" alt='Peter Boehm, 14-year-old quarterback of the Pop Warner L.A.
