"bio": "• I write and edit stories about how Silicon Valley power and policies shape everyday life in California. I’m also passionate about making Bay Area history and culture more accessible to a broad public. • I’ve been a journalist for most of my life, starting in high school with The Franklin Press in Los Angeles, where I grew up. While earning my first degree in English at UC Berkeley, I got my start in public radio at KALX-FM. After completing a second degree in journalism at Cal, I landed my first professional job at Marketplace, then moved on to KPCC (now LAist), and then KQED, where I hosted The California Report for more than seven years. • My reporting has appeared on NPR, The World, WBUR’s \u003ci>Here & Now\u003c/i>, and the BBC. I also guest host for KQED’s \u003ci>Forum\u003c/i>, as well as the Commonwealth Club in San Francisco. • I speak periodically on media, democracy and technology issues, and do voiceover work for documentaries and educational video projects. • Outside of the studio, you'll find me hiking Bay Area trails and whipping up Insta-ready meals in my kitchen. • I do not accept gifts, money, or favors from anyone connected to my reporting, I don't pay people for information, and I do not support or donate to political causes. • I strive to treat the people I report on with fairness, honesty, and respect. I also recognize there are often multiple sides to a story and work to verify information through multiple sources and documentation. If I get something wrong, I correct it.",

Despite stalwart efforts, the city is “approximately 18% behind its \u003ca href=\"https://www.berkeleyside.com/2013/09/06/berkeley-greenhouse-gas-emissions-down-8-since-2000\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">2020 [Climate Action Plan] goal\u003c/a> and will fall short of its ultimate goal of net zero emissions by 2050.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We have to take more drastic action,” Harrison said during her comments on the dais.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The effect of this legislation will be that builders will be \u003ca href=\"https://www.berkeleyside.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/Item-C-Rev-Harrison.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">prohibited from applying for entitlements that include gas infrastructure\u003c/a> — gas piping to heat water, space, food, etc. — except for specific building systems that have not yet been modeled for all-electric design” by the state, according to the council report on the ordinance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The new law, which goes into effect in January, will apply only to building types that have been reviewed and analyzed by the California Energy Commission. Each time the state expands its models and analyses, the city will be able to update its law without returning to the council for a new vote.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Natural gas may be allowed in new projects if an applicant can show that “it is not physically feasible to construct the building” without it, according to the ordinance language. But new construction must be built so it can be converted to all-electric in the future.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The new ordinance includes exemptions for internal \u003ca href=\"https://www.berkeleyside.com/2019/01/07/despite-relaxed-laws-building-an-accessory-dwelling-unit-in-berkeley-can-still-prove-challenging\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">accessory dwelling units\u003c/a> (those built inside an existing home) as well as projects that the city’s Zoning Adjustments Board or planning staff determine are in the public interest.

To show how safe the burner was, the staffer placed a sheet of paper between the burner and a pot to prove that the paper would not catch fire as the chocolate melted.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Multiple speakers during public comment said they had shifted from gas to \u003ca href=\"https://www.berkeleyside.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/Induction-cooking-factsheet.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">induction burners in their Berkeley homes\u003c/a> and were happy with the change.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California Energy Commission Chairman David Hochschild, who has lived in Berkeley for nearly a decade, told officials he was very much in favor of the ordinance. He said it would be yet another chance for Berkeley to be a trendsetter.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You see those changes go to other cities, then go up to the state level and then go to the national level,” Hochschild said. “That’s how change happens.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California, he noted, has a state mandate in place to get to 100% clean energy by 2045, and electrification is the next step in that endeavor. Fifty other cities in the state are “actively considering” legislation related to phasing out natural gas, he told the council, “but Berkeley’s the first, thanks to you.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mayor Jesse Arreguín picked up on that theme: “Ideas start here and movements are born here,” he said of Berkeley. Phasing out natural gas is a necessary action, he added, “not some radical pie-in-the-sky idea.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Arreguín credited Councilwoman Davila for her resolution in 2018 to \u003ca href=\"https://www.berkeleyside.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/Item-49-Supp-Hahn.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">declare a climate emergency\u003c/a> in Berkeley.

The law includes a recommendation for a two-year staff position, paid for through the city’s \u003ca href=\"https://www.berkeleyside.com/2017/01/26/berkeley-council-agrees-rainy-day-fund-policy\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">excess equity fund\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Harrison’s presentation included a fondue demonstration by a staffer who set up an electric induction burner, then melted chocolate and dipped fresh strawberries into it. To show how safe the burner was, the staffer placed a sheet of paper between the burner and a pot to prove that the paper would not catch fire as the chocolate melted.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Multiple speakers during public comment said they had shifted from gas to \u003ca href=\"https://www.berkeleyside.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/Induction-cooking-factsheet.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">induction burners in their Berkeley homes\u003c/a> and were happy with the change.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California Energy Commission Chairman David Hochschild, who has lived in Berkeley for nearly a decade, told officials he was very much in favor of the ordinance. He said it would be yet another chance for Berkeley to be a trendsetter.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You see those changes go to other cities, then go up to the state level and then go to the national level,” Hochschild said. “That’s how change happens.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California, he noted, has a state mandate in place to get to 100% clean energy by 2045, and electrification is the next step in that endeavor. Fifty other cities in the state are “actively considering” legislation related to phasing out natural gas, he told the council, “but Berkeley’s the first, thanks to you.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mayor Jesse Arreguín picked up on that theme: “Ideas start here and movements are born here,” he said of Berkeley. Phasing out natural gas is a necessary action, he added, “not some radical pie-in-the-sky idea.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Arreguín credited Councilwoman Davila for her resolution in 2018 to \u003ca href=\"https://www.berkeleyside.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/Item-49-Supp-Hahn.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">declare a climate emergency\u003c/a> in Berkeley. He said that helped set the stage for Tuesday night’s electrification ordinance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In her remarks, Davila said it was her son who motivated her to put forward last year’s climate emergency resolution.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This is exactly what we wanted and dreamed and hoped for,” she said. “This is just the beginning.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>This article was republished with permission \u003ca href=\"https://www.berkeleyside.com/2019/07/17/natural-gas-pipes-now-banned-in-new-berkeley-buildings-with-some-exceptions\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">from Berkeleyside\u003c/a>.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

"content": "\u003cp>On Tuesday, Berkeley’s City Council is expected to consider a moratorium on enforcement of a recent ordinance that allows the city to clear homeless people’s property from sidewalks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The city recently began enforcing the rule, which lets officials clear off the sidewalks during the day. People living on the streets are allowed to set up their camps between 10 p.m. and 7 a.m., but must break them down during the day. Berkeley Mayor Jesse Arreguín has said the new ordinance was meant to address the accumulation of personal items on walkways without criminalizing homelessness.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Councilmember Cheryl Davila said that the city first needs a robust homelessness response system in place to help before it can expect the unhoused — including seniors and the disabled — to break down their camps each day. After all, she said, they don’t necessarily have anywhere to go with their stuff.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label=\"Berkeley's Homelessness\" link1=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11735832/berkeley-affirms-ban-on-overnight-rv-parking-once-permit-system-is-in-place,Berkeley Affirms Ban on Overnight RV Parking\" link2=\"https://www.berkeleyside.com/2018/10/17/city-council-approves-rules-restricting-objects-on-sidewalks,City Council Approves Rules Restricting Objects on Sidewalks\" link3=\"https://www.berkeleyside.com/2019/05/24/jury-finds-berkeley-did-not-violate-a-homeless-groups-civil-rights,Jury Finds Berkeley Did Not Violate a Homeless Group's Civil Rights\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There’s a lot of anxiety about it, the anticipation of getting a ticket or enforcement,” she said, which could be difficult for them to pay. “Their stuff, which is all they have, is in their tent and they’re not able to break it down into a three-by-three.” Plus, she said, sometimes they’re sick or not able to cart off their belongings.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Davila said enforcement should be paused until the city has enough daytime shelters and storage lockers for homeless residents to use.

People living on the streets are allowed to set up their camps between 10 p.m. and 7 a.m., but must break them down during the day. Berkeley Mayor Jesse Arreguín has said the new ordinance was meant to address the accumulation of personal items on walkways without criminalizing homelessness.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Councilmember Cheryl Davila said that the city first needs a robust homelessness response system in place to help before it can expect the unhoused — including seniors and the disabled — to break down their camps each day. After all, she said, they don’t necessarily have anywhere to go with their stuff.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Hosts Ki Sung and Katrina Schwartz introduce listeners to educators, researchers, parents and students who are developing effective ways to improve how kids learn. We cover topics like how fed-up administrators are developing surprising tactics to deal with classroom disruptions; how listening to podcasts are helping kids develop reading skills; the consequences of overparenting; and why interdisciplinary learning can engage students on all ends of the traditional achievement spectrum. This podcast is part of the MindShift education site, a division of KQED News. KQED is an NPR/PBS member station based in San Francisco.
