- Monday/tonight! Getting to 80 Percent Sustainable Trips Post-COVID. Emissions from vehicles are responsible for 46 percent of San Francisco’s carbon footprint.

- Wednesday Building Around Transit. In 2005, the Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC) adopted its first transit-oriented development (TOD) policy, which helped add 26,000 housing units near transit.

How can it be updated to best increase the housing supply, reduce greenhouse gas emissions and support economic growth around bus, rail and ferry stations?
