Polluters want to delay clean air protections. Today, 99 Bay Area community members packed an meeting to say no. 🚫

Burning gas in homes and buildings generates more smog-forming NOx pollution than every passenger car in the Bay Area combined.

These standards help households upgrade to cleaner, more efficient electric appliances — better for your health, and better for your energy bills.

No delays. Tell : implement these rules with common-sense flexibility measures on time.

The smog isn’t just coming from traffic. It’s coming from our homes.

Gas-burning water heaters and furnaces produce more smog-forming pollution than all passenger cars in the Bay Area combined.

We already have clean air standards that can save lives. Now they need to be implemented.

Today, this message is featured in a full-page San Francisco Chronicle ad from the Bay Area Clean Air Coalition.

Tell don’t delay. Protect our air. Implement Rule 9-6. Take a look at the ad 👇 and help amplify!

🛥️ This week for Trail Thursday, we are featuring Angel Island State Park in San Francisco! There are no roads or bridges to get there, so you will have to take the ferry or your own boat.

🌊 The island has extensive history from being a seasonal hunting and gathering location for the Huimen tribe to becoming a U.S. immigration station processing thousands of people. You can learn more about its history at the museums in the park.

📍If you visit the park, tag us! We will be adding your pictures to future Trail Thursdays. If you have a trail recommendation, add it in the comments. We might feature it in the next Trail Thursday!
