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.",

He says one family lost their home when the owner sold it and it was converted it into a short-term rental.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They were evicted and now they have nowhere to go,” says Mellon. “They were living in a tent trailer for a while. Now they have to move off that property. They have a little girl who is 6 years old. She’s in first grade right now. They’re trying to [figure out] how do I be homeless with a first-grader.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mellon is in a bind himself. He can’t find a rental in Oakhurst, so he commutes from Fresno. Justin Bales just began his first week back at the Jubilee Ministry. He moved back to Oakhurst after spending time in jail and a period of being homeless in Bakersfield.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=\"ZGVcAyZvxyAKxZG2NMSr9aRKHr8kbSj2\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This is like a little slice of heaven, I’ll be honest to you,” says Bales. “I’ve been all around California -- Sacramento, L.A., Fresno. In Bakersfield I was in the mission, and it was as ghetto as can be. People shooting up drugs right outside the gate. You don’t see that right here.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When Bales isn’t couch surfing, he’s living on the streets. He’s looking for a more permanent job, and even though work is scarce, he says he wanted to move home near family. He says the community needs more services for the homeless population, such as a shelter.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You get out on the streets and you’re like, OK, even if I’m not a drug user you end up using drugs because you’re going to be cold at night. But if you’re using drugs you’re going to be warm at night,” says Bales. “I really wish Madera County would open up some kind of shelter for people that tried.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11628529\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-11628529\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/11/JBales-800x550.jpg\" alt=\"Justin Bales has been homeless off and on for about a decade.

He recently landed back in Oakhurst and is couch surfing. \u003ccite>(Ezra David Romero/Valley Public Radio)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>So is the homeless problem getting worse because of the short-term rentals? It's hard to get a definitive answer, but there is a long-term rental shortage in the area. Everyone I spoke with says they’ve noticed new homeless faces in the area, but the actual number hasn’t officially grown. In 2016, 43 homeless people were counted in the Oakhurst area, but that number dropped to around 35 in this year’s count. Officials say the number is low because there weren’t many volunteers this year for the 2017 count.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, Tom Nicolulis with Manna House -- a food pantry, free thrift shop and job training facility in Oakhurst -- doesn’t think the homeless problem is large enough in the area for a shelter. Even though his ministry served over 35,000 families last year, he doesn’t think rental issues are creating widespread homelessness.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=\"R7O54hm5VDr8dHcP8oWCpKWZ5Z6NUnKQ\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’m not going to be ignorant to the fact that it could generate some homelessness because I’ve already seen it happen,” Nicolulis says. “As long as we have humanity on Earth we are going to have a homeless population. Every town across the nation has a homeless population.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Whether or not the homeless situation in the region is growing, life is still not easy for people on the streets. For example, people like Michael Clay. We met at the New Community Unitarian Methodist Church of Oakhurst for a dinner serving the homeless population.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Clay isn’t sure if the homeless population is growing in the area, but he says that in his seven months of being homeless, this time around he’s noticed new homeless people in the area. He sleeps in a graveyard to hide from homeless people he thinks will harm him.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’m basically now running around with two pairs of clothes and a tarp and blanket,” says Clay. “I’m mostly frustrated because I do have a disability and the means to pay for an apartment, but I’m being harried all up and down Highway 41 by other homeless people and they keep moving in from different areas.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Clay is on two waitlists for affordable apartments in Oakhurst, but he says he isn’t banking on a unit becoming available anytime soon.\u003c/p>\n\n",

He says one family lost their home when the owner sold it and it was converted it into a short-term rental.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They were evicted and now they have nowhere to go,” says Mellon. “They were living in a tent trailer for a while. Now they have to move off that property. They have a little girl who is 6 years old. She’s in first grade right now. They’re trying to [figure out] how do I be homeless with a first-grader.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mellon is in a bind himself. He can’t find a rental in Oakhurst, so he commutes from Fresno. Justin Bales just began his first week back at the Jubilee Ministry. He moved back to Oakhurst after spending time in jail and a period of being homeless in Bakersfield.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This is like a little slice of heaven, I’ll be honest to you,” says Bales. “I’ve been all around California -- Sacramento, L.A., Fresno. In Bakersfield I was in the mission, and it was as ghetto as can be. People shooting up drugs right outside the gate. You don’t see that right here.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When Bales isn’t couch surfing, he’s living on the streets. He’s looking for a more permanent job, and even though work is scarce, he says he wanted to move home near family. He says the community needs more services for the homeless population, such as a shelter.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You get out on the streets and you’re like, OK, even if I’m not a drug user you end up using drugs because you’re going to be cold at night. But if you’re using drugs you’re going to be warm at night,” says Bales. “I really wish Madera County would open up some kind of shelter for people that tried.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11628529\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-11628529\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/11/JBales-800x550.jpg\" alt=\"Justin Bales has been homeless off and on for about a decade.

He recently landed back in Oakhurst and is couch surfing. \u003ccite>(Ezra David Romero/Valley Public Radio)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>So is the homeless problem getting worse because of the short-term rentals? It's hard to get a definitive answer, but there is a long-term rental shortage in the area. Everyone I spoke with says they’ve noticed new homeless faces in the area, but the actual number hasn’t officially grown. In 2016, 43 homeless people were counted in the Oakhurst area, but that number dropped to around 35 in this year’s count. Officials say the number is low because there weren’t many volunteers this year for the 2017 count.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, Tom Nicolulis with Manna House -- a food pantry, free thrift shop and job training facility in Oakhurst -- doesn’t think the homeless problem is large enough in the area for a shelter. Even though his ministry served over 35,000 families last year, he doesn’t think rental issues are creating widespread homelessness.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’m not going to be ignorant to the fact that it could generate some homelessness because I’ve already seen it happen,” Nicolulis says. “As long as we have humanity on Earth we are going to have a homeless population. Every town across the nation has a homeless population.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Whether or not the homeless situation in the region is growing, life is still not easy for people on the streets. For example, people like Michael Clay. We met at the New Community Unitarian Methodist Church of Oakhurst for a dinner serving the homeless population.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Clay isn’t sure if the homeless population is growing in the area, but he says that in his seven months of being homeless, this time around he’s noticed new homeless people in the area. He sleeps in a graveyard to hide from homeless people he thinks will harm him.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’m basically now running around with two pairs of clothes and a tarp and blanket,” says Clay. “I’m mostly frustrated because I do have a disability and the means to pay for an apartment, but I’m being harried all up and down Highway 41 by other homeless people and they keep moving in from different areas.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

"content": "\u003cp>The California coast is an edge. It’s the place where 1,100 miles of shoreline meets the largest ocean on the planet. Many different forces collide there, and a lot of exciting things happen. The coast is a geological edge, zippered to North America by 800 miles of the San Andreas Fault and battered by the Pacific Ocean.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s also a social, political, cultural, spiritual, economic and technological edge. It is where the most populous state and sixth-largest economy in the world is \u003ca href=\"https://www.ucpress.edu/ebook.php?isbn=9780520938670\">exposed to wind, waves, tides, El Niños, earthquakes and tsunamis\u003c/a>. These forces made California’s coastline rugged, beautiful and beckoning.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the natural beauty that has drawn so many to the edge of the Golden State has been seriously impacted by human actions. Forty-four percent of California residents live along the southern California coast, from Ventura to San Diego counties, and you can’t squeeze \u003ca href=\"http://www.dof.ca.gov/Forecasting/Demographics/Estimates/E-1/\">18 million people\u003c/a> into 233 miles of coast without some impacts. If they all went to the beach at the same time, each resident would have less than an inch of shoreline.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=”QrDrbNeVa0tfb9NUBf3B0ULNOHO8w0F3″]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 1972 California launched a great experiment to protect its coast. The resulting California Coastal Act sought to protect public shoreline access, wetlands and threatened coastal habitats. It also limited development to protect the beauty and grandeur of the shore for future generations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Today California’s coastal management program is \u003ca href=\"http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/08920757409361692\">recognized\u003c/a> around the world for its success, even as the state’s coast and ocean economy thrive. But new challenges loom large, including sea level rise, ocean acidification and proposals for offshore wind and wave energy development. California’s population continues to grow, and an internet-driven vacation-rental economy threatens the character of many coastal cities and towns.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11622404\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1000px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-11622404 size-full\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/coast-file-20171002-3782-fi0bx9-e1507740219838.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"750\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Three Arch Bay, Laguna Beach \u003ccite>(\u003ca href=\"https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/f/f3/Three_Arch_Bay_Photo_Taken_by_pilot_D_Ramey_Logan.jpg\">Don Ramey Logan\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/\">CC BY\u003c/a>)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch2>Impacts of the Postwar Boom\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>The coast of California has attracted humans since the earliest Americans arrived, perhaps 15,000 years ago, and still draws them today. \u003ca href=\"https://www.census.gov/prod/2010pubs/p25-1139.pdf\">About two-thirds\u003c/a> of the Golden State’s 39.6 million people live in coastal counties, and for good reasons. Some 75 percent of the state’s jobs are based in coastal counties. California has the nation’s largest ocean economy, valued at about \u003ca href=\"https://coast.noaa.gov/data/digitalcoast/pdf/california-ocean-economy.pdf\">$44 billion\u003c/a>. Nearly half of that is provided by tourism and recreation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The state’s population more than doubled between 1945 and 1970, and many of these people settled in coastal counties. Cliffs, bluffs and low-lying shoreline areas were developed as more and more new residents arrived to get their piece of the Golden State’s coast. This period of rapid coastal growth coincided with a calm climatic cycle with fewer \u003ca href=\"https://theconversation.com/what-north-america-can-expect-from-el-nino-51959\">El Niño events\u003c/a> than the previous decades. As a result, the coast experienced relatively few damaging storms and generally mild and welcoming weather.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Rapid growth reduced public access to the shore, polluted coastal waters and led to habitat loss and development of rural agricultural lands. In 1978 the climate shifted to a 20-year period of \u003ca href=\"http://ggweather.com/enso/oni.htm\">more frequent and severe El Niños\u003c/a>.

But sea level rise driven by climate change threatens to literally erode away many of the gains of the last four decades. One recent study projects that \u003ca href=\"http://dx.doi.org/10.1002/2017JF004308\">up to two-thirds of Southern California’s beaches may be gone by 2100\u003c/a>.

Critical public infrastructure is at risk, including Highway One along the coast and dozens of wastewater and other industrial facilities. Climate change also will alter coastal ecology as sea level rise inundates wetlands and intertidal zones. Temperature changes shift habitats both on- and offshore, making it even more challenging to protect them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Fortunately California is embracing these challenges. The Coastal Commission is leading a sea level rise planning effort, and more than two-thirds of California’s 76 local governments on the outer coast have completed or are undertaking \u003ca href=\"https://www.coastal.ca.gov/climate/slr/\">coastal hazards vulnerability assessments\u003c/a>. In 2018 voters likely will consider a \u003ca href=\"http://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billTextClient.xhtml?bill_id=201720180SB5&search_keywords=parks+bond\">new bond measure\u003c/a> that would direct hundreds of millions of dollars to climate adaptation projects on the coast.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Another alarming trend is that the shore is \u003ca href=\"http://www.abc10.com/news/local/california/are-californias-beaches-gentrified/413624195\">becoming less accessible\u003c/a> for many Californians.

Although California’s population has doubled again since 1970, the urban footprint along the coast is \u003ca href=\"http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/08920753.2013.784891\">largely the same today as it was in 1972\u003c/a>. The Coastal Commission and local governments have acted to reduce losses of wetlands and riparian areas and protect many coastal habitats.

It has set a gold standard for addressing noise in the marine environment through such actions as \u003ca href=\"http://www.mercurynews.com/2013/03/08/california-coastal-commission-rejects-navy-offshore-explosives-sonar-training/\">limiting the use of sonar\u003c/a> in U.S. naval exercises to avoid potential impacts on sensitive marine mammals.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California is well-known for protecting public beach access and coastal trails. Since the 1970s the Coastal Commission has required thousands of property owners to provide public access across their property in exchange for developing along the coast. This has enabled residents and visitors to freely use such beautiful and previously exclusive beaches as Stillwater Cove at Pebble Beach and “\u003ca href=\"http://www.businessinsider.com/malibus-exclusive-billionaires-beach-is-now-open-to-the-public-after-a-decade-long-legal-fight-2015-7\">Billionaire’s Beach\u003c/a>” in Malibu — a decades-long legal battle.

But sea level rise driven by climate change threatens to literally erode away many of the gains of the last four decades. One recent study projects that \u003ca href=\"http://dx.doi.org/10.1002/2017JF004308\">up to two-thirds of Southern California’s beaches may be gone by 2100\u003c/a>. According to current estimates, sea levels could rise \u003ca href=\"http://www.opc.ca.gov/webmaster/ftp/pdf/docs/rising-seas-in-california-an-update-on-sea-level-rise-science.pdf\">12 to 18 inches by 2050 and 3 to 4 feet by 2100\u003c/a>, possibly higher.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Huge investments will be needed to help communities adapt to increased flooding and storm impacts. Critical public infrastructure is at risk, including Highway One along the coast and dozens of wastewater and other industrial facilities. Climate change also will alter coastal ecology as sea level rise inundates wetlands and intertidal zones. Temperature changes shift habitats both on- and offshore, making it even more challenging to protect them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Fortunately California is embracing these challenges. The Coastal Commission is leading a sea level rise planning effort, and more than two-thirds of California’s 76 local governments on the outer coast have completed or are undertaking \u003ca href=\"https://www.coastal.ca.gov/climate/slr/\">coastal hazards vulnerability assessments\u003c/a>. In 2018 voters likely will consider a \u003ca href=\"http://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billTextClient.xhtml?bill_id=201720180SB5&search_keywords=parks+bond\">new bond measure\u003c/a> that would direct hundreds of millions of dollars to climate adaptation projects on the coast.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Another alarming trend is that the shore is \u003ca href=\"http://www.abc10.com/news/local/california/are-californias-beaches-gentrified/413624195\">becoming less accessible\u003c/a> for many Californians. The state has largely failed to protect affordable housing along the coast, and coastal communities are gentrifying at a breakneck pace. New campgrounds are rare, and overnight accommodations are increasingly too expensive for the average visitor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https://counter.theconversation.com/content/76927/count.gif?distributor=republish-lightbox-basic\" alt=\"\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\">Continuing to meet the lofty aspirations and legacy of California’s first 50 years of coastal management won’t be easy.
