His work has appeared on Newsweek.com, Slate.com, CBSNews.com, MotherJones.com, DailyKos.com and NPR’s web site. Fiore’s political animation has appeared on CNN, Frontline, Bill Moyers Journal, Salon.com and cable and broadcast outlets across the globe.\r\n\r\nBeginning his professional life by drawing traditional political cartoons for newspapers, Fiore’s work appeared in publications ranging from the Washington Post to the Los Angeles Times. In the late 1990s, he began to experiment with animating political cartoons and, after a short stint at the San Jose Mercury News as their staff cartoonist, Fiore devoted all his energies to animation.\r\nGrowing up in California, Fiore also spent a good portion of his life in the backwoods of Idaho. It was this combination that shaped him politically. Mark majored in political science at Colorado College, where, in a perfect send-off for a cartoonist, he received his diploma in 1991 as commencement speaker Dick Cheney smiled approvingly.\r\nMark Fiore was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for political cartooning in 2010, a Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Award in 2004 and has twice received an Online Journalism Award for commentary from the Online News Association (2002, 2008). Fiore has received two awards for his work in new media from the National Cartoonists Society (2001, 2002), and in 2006 received The James Madison Freedom of Information Award from The Society of Professional Journalists.",

And if you've ever seen these tremendous 40-ton beasts breach, you may have wondered: How did these animals get so big? The commonly held belief is that animals like whales were released from the burdens of living on land -- burdens such as gravity and a limited food supply -- so once they got into the sea, they were able to get as big as they wanted.

"content": "\u003cp>As the North Bay fires burned more than 100,000 acres over the course of a few weeks last October, 100 miles south, in Santa Clara, Sutter Health pediatrician Manisha Panchal was stunned at the number of patients coming to her with coughs and bronchospasms — even children who had never wheezed before.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During the fires, the entire Bay Area got a taste of what it’s like to walk around during a high pollution day in Beijing, China. The fires released as much pollution into the air as a full year of cars on California roads.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But on a typical day, air quality is not top of mind for most locals.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It comes out when there’s the wildfires,” said Panchal, “and then it goes away, and people forget.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As climate change continues, wildfires could become the “new normal” for California, Gov. Jerry Brown warned last year. Despite the strides California policymakers have made to reduce emissions, this natural phenomenon will contribute to climate change and short-term air pollution. However, it’s not the only concern state officials have about air quality.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While California holds a reputation as a leader in environmental policy, it \u003ca href=\"https://www.americashealthrankings.org/explore/annual/measure/air/state/ALL\">still ranks\u003c/a> worst out of all 50 states for average public exposure to particulate matter pollution — tiny particles measured in microns, a millionth of a meter — largely due to the state’s topography and population density. California is also home to seven of the 10 U.S. metropolitan areas with the highest short-term levels of particle pollution. In 2018, the Bay Area ranked \u003ca href=\"http://www.lung.org/our-initiatives/healthy-air/sota/city-rankings/most-polluted-cities.html\">sixth\u003c/a> on the list, above the notoriously polluted Los Angeles-Long Beach area.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And though overall air quality statewide is improving, there are communities where pollution levels are the same or worse, University of Southern California lung health expert Ed Avol said. Startups and local air districts are working to reduce this disparity in the air people breathe, but they face several challenges to do so.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Understanding air quality at a hyperlocal level is a problem for both local residents and public officials. Data monitoring stations are spaced far apart, taking regional air measurements that differ drastically from what an individual may be actually breathing at any given time. As population and traffic congestion in the Bay Area grow, existing infrastructure keeps many local schools and athletic facilities a stone’s throw from emissions-heavy freeway routes. And as has been \u003ca href=\"http://www.lung.org/our-initiatives/healthy-air/outdoor/air-pollution/disparities.html\">well-documented\u003c/a>, low-income areas and communities of color face stronger impacts from polluted air.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They get overexposed because we can afford to live in a more desirable place, and this becomes an issue of environmental justice, environmental racism,” said Avol.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To be sure, air quality in many areas around the world is far worse than it is in the Bay Area. Cities like Beijing and New Delhi rank far higher in pollution measures on a daily basis. But the issue is worth working on locally because today’s levels still produce negative health effects, researchers say, particularly for disadvantaged populations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Filling in the Data Gap\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On an average day, a Bay Area resident who looks at the Environmental Protection Agency’s \u003ca href=\"https://airnow.gov/index.cfm?action=airnow.local_city\">AirNow\u003c/a> air quality website sees nothing to be concerned about. However, startups taking a closer look find pollution can vary greatly from neighborhood to neighborhood.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>San Francisco-based Aclima is a startup that says it’s “filling in the pixels” on air pollution data by collecting street-level measurements.

Six freeways and a rail yard “choke my community,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Garcia noticed that districts like hers — working-class areas, communities of color, were often located in regions with poorer air quality. This experience prompted Garcia to take up the cause of environmental justice as a state legislator.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“My community has been treated like a wasteland,” she said. Garcia always heard that as the environment of California improved overall, her district would catch up, too. But she wasn’t seeing the results: “We’ve been calling it trickle-down environmentalism for a few years now.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So Garcia proposed Assembly Bill 617, a regulation that mandates local air districts identify disadvantaged communities in each region for closer monitoring. The districts must then implement action plans to decrease pollution in those specific areas.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The bill passed last year, and local air districts had to submit a draft description of the first target communities by April 30. Garcia said she expects some positive results in air quality by 2023.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For now, the Bay Area air district is looking primarily at West Oakland as a site for action plans to reduce emissions, and at Richmond as a site for additional air monitoring. The Port of Oakland and highway traffic are major emitters for the region.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The important thing is that we protect the health of every resident of the Bay Area,” Stevenson said. “No one else is doing this — no one else in the country.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11666473\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11666473\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/05/Richmond-800x600.jpg\" alt=\"A woman marking up a map for air monitoring.\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/05/Richmond-800x600.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/05/Richmond-160x120.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/05/Richmond-960x720.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/05/Richmond-240x180.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/05/Richmond-375x281.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/05/Richmond-520x390.jpg 520w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/05/Richmond.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">At an air district event, Point Richmond resident Lori Goldwin marks a potential site for community air monitoring. \u003ccite>(Isha Salian/Peninsula Press)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>On a recent Wednesday night in Richmond, around 60 community members gathered to discuss the air district’s plans for additional air monitoring in the city.

In the past six months, she’s started to notice odors from polluted air in her neighborhood.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Maybe I’ll be run out of town by this,” she said. “I don’t want to move, but I could move.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Rethinking School Design\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Children are more vulnerable to irritation from traffic and air pollution because their lungs are still developing, said Avol. And while children are exposed to air pollution at home, another major factor is the location of their schools. California Air Resources Board lung researcher Barbara Weller said even in Bay Area, where overall pollution is fairly low, having schools near traffic is associated with increased wheeze in children.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>These schools are more prevalent in disadvantaged communities. Statewide, 58.7 percent of students were eligible for free or reduced-price school lunches during the 2014-2015 school year. \u003ca href=\"https://public.tableau.com/profile/marnette.federis#!/vizhome/Schoolsfrpmmap1/Dashboard1\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">For schools located within 500 feet of major roads, that figure jumps to 67.2 percent.\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A 2003 California guideline \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billCompareClient.xhtml?bill_id=200320040SB352\">recommends\u003c/a> that no new schools should be built within 500 feet of a major road or freeway. But while “it’s wonderful that new schools are sited away from traffic … a lot of schools were already built,” Weller said. California has more than 1,000 active public schools located within 500 feet of major roads – a third of which opened in 2004 or later, an analysis of data collected by the Center for Public Integrity shows.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dr. Panchal’s children attend one of those schools – Bullis Charter School in Los Altos, opened in 2004. She says the lunch tables are located right next to San Antonio Road, separated by a fence. “Why would they put the tables there?” she said. “For that one hour the kids are just breathing these particles.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11666469\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11666469\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/05/CupertinoMiddleHomesteadHigh-800x450.jpg\" alt=\"A Google map of Cupertino Middle School and Homestead High School and its location a few hundred feet away from the freeway.\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Cupertino Middle School (upper left) is located within 500 feet of Highway 85.

California is also home to seven of the 10 U.S. metropolitan areas with the highest short-term levels of particle pollution. In 2018, the Bay Area ranked \u003ca href=\"http://www.lung.org/our-initiatives/healthy-air/sota/city-rankings/most-polluted-cities.html\">sixth\u003c/a> on the list, above the notoriously polluted Los Angeles-Long Beach area.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And though overall air quality statewide is improving, there are communities where pollution levels are the same or worse, University of Southern California lung health expert Ed Avol said. Startups and local air districts are working to reduce this disparity in the air people breathe, but they face several challenges to do so.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Understanding air quality at a hyperlocal level is a problem for both local residents and public officials. Data monitoring stations are spaced far apart, taking regional air measurements that differ drastically from what an individual may be actually breathing at any given time. As population and traffic congestion in the Bay Area grow, existing infrastructure keeps many local schools and athletic facilities a stone’s throw from emissions-heavy freeway routes. And as has been \u003ca href=\"http://www.lung.org/our-initiatives/healthy-air/outdoor/air-pollution/disparities.html\">well-documented\u003c/a>, low-income areas and communities of color face stronger impacts from polluted air.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They get overexposed because we can afford to live in a more desirable place, and this becomes an issue of environmental justice, environmental racism,” said Avol.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To be sure, air quality in many areas around the world is far worse than it is in the Bay Area. Cities like Beijing and New Delhi rank far higher in pollution measures on a daily basis. But the issue is worth working on locally because today’s levels still produce negative health effects, researchers say, particularly for disadvantaged populations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Filling in the Data Gap\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On an average day, a Bay Area resident who looks at the Environmental Protection Agency’s \u003ca href=\"https://airnow.gov/index.cfm?action=airnow.local_city\">AirNow\u003c/a> air quality website sees nothing to be concerned about.

Data from the Environmental Protection Agency’s Air Quality System Data Mart. \u003ccite>(Isha Salian/Peninsula Press)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>“I think it’s a failing of the air districts, and the state government, which doesn’t require the air districts to do more,” said Bill Magavern, policy director at the Coalition for Clean Air.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Magavern says the air monitoring network does what’s required to comply with EPA rules about pollutant reporting, but this level of monitoring does not capture important neighborhood-level data.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>His coalition has begun a project to install cheaper, portable monitors at schools and residences in the Los Angeles area. Once communities and government officials have a better understanding of hyperlocal air data, they can begin taking action to mitigate pollution.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California is now making strides to collect this kind of data on more narrow pockets of the state.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The aim: for all residents to be breathing the same quality air.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Getting Down to the Neighborhood Level\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Growing up in Bell Gardens, a city in Los Angeles County, state Assemblywoman Cristina Garcia saw truck and freight traffic from the Port of Long Beach go by every day, spewing pollution into the air. Six freeways and a rail yard “choke my community,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Garcia noticed that districts like hers — working-class areas, communities of color, were often located in regions with poorer air quality. This experience prompted Garcia to take up the cause of environmental justice as a state legislator.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“My community has been treated like a wasteland,” she said. Garcia always heard that as the environment of California improved overall, her district would catch up, too. But she wasn’t seeing the results: “We’ve been calling it trickle-down environmentalism for a few years now.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So Garcia proposed Assembly Bill 617, a regulation that mandates local air districts identify disadvantaged communities in each region for closer monitoring. The districts must then implement action plans to decrease pollution in those specific areas.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The bill passed last year, and local air districts had to submit a draft description of the first target communities by April 30. Garcia said she expects some positive results in air quality by 2023.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For now, the Bay Area air district is looking primarily at West Oakland as a site for action plans to reduce emissions, and at Richmond as a site for additional air monitoring. The Port of Oakland and highway traffic are major emitters for the region.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The important thing is that we protect the health of every resident of the Bay Area,” Stevenson said. “No one else is doing this — no one else in the country.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11666473\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11666473\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/05/Richmond-800x600.jpg\" alt=\"A woman marking up a map for air monitoring.\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/05/Richmond-800x600.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/05/Richmond-160x120.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/05/Richmond-960x720.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/05/Richmond-240x180.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/05/Richmond-375x281.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/05/Richmond-520x390.jpg 520w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/05/Richmond.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">At an air district event, Point Richmond resident Lori Goldwin marks a potential site for community air monitoring. \u003ccite>(Isha Salian/Peninsula Press)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>On a recent Wednesday night in Richmond, around 60 community members gathered to discuss the air district’s plans for additional air monitoring in the city. The air district responded to community concerns about whether monitoring data would be easily accessible online, and that the data would lead to action.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“These are human rights violations when you’re talking about disproportionate impact,” Henry Clark, executive director of the advocacy group West County Toxics Coalition, at the meeting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In an effort to include local residents in the monitoring process, the air district asked attendees to suggest potential sites for placing new air monitors. They could out fill a form online, or place a neon sticker on a large map of Richmond pinned to the wall.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I put a dot where I live at the top of the hill,” said attendee Lori Goldwin, a resident of Point Richmond. In the past six months, she’s started to notice odors from polluted air in her neighborhood.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Maybe I’ll be run out of town by this,” she said. “I don’t want to move, but I could move.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Rethinking School Design\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Children are more vulnerable to irritation from traffic and air pollution because their lungs are still developing, said Avol. And while children are exposed to air pollution at home, another major factor is the location of their schools. California Air Resources Board lung researcher Barbara Weller said even in Bay Area, where overall pollution is fairly low, having schools near traffic is associated with increased wheeze in children.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>These schools are more prevalent in disadvantaged communities. Statewide, 58.7 percent of students were eligible for free or reduced-price school lunches during the 2014-2015 school year. \u003ca href=\"https://public.tableau.com/profile/marnette.federis#!/vizhome/Schoolsfrpmmap1/Dashboard1\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">For schools located within 500 feet of major roads, that figure jumps to 67.2 percent.\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A 2003 California guideline \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billCompareClient.xhtml?bill_id=200320040SB352\">recommends\u003c/a> that no new schools should be built within 500 feet of a major road or freeway. But while “it’s wonderful that new schools are sited away from traffic … a lot of schools were already built,” Weller said. California has more than 1,000 active public schools located within 500 feet of major roads – a third of which opened in 2004 or later, an analysis of data collected by the Center for Public Integrity shows.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dr. Panchal’s children attend one of those schools – Bullis Charter School in Los Altos, opened in 2004. She says the lunch tables are located right next to San Antonio Road, separated by a fence. “Why would they put the tables there?” she said. “For that one hour the kids are just breathing these particles.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11666469\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11666469\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/05/CupertinoMiddleHomesteadHigh-800x450.jpg\" alt=\"A Google map of Cupertino Middle School and Homestead High School and its location a few hundred feet away from the freeway.\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Cupertino Middle School (upper left) is located within 500 feet of Highway 85.

Weller recommends moving playgrounds, fields and other outdoor areas further from roads as a solution to lessen the health impacts of vehicle emissions.
