Transportation policymakers face a critical dual challenge: electrifying the nation's vehicle fleet and establishing a stable funding source. As the U.S. shifts to electric vehicles, the traditional reliance on motor fuel taxes is unsustainable, necessitating new models like mileage fees or carbon taxes.

This vital discussion features U.S. Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg, Senator Alex Padilla, and other experts. The program is supported by the Mineta Transportation Institute at San José State University.

The Commonwealth Club of California, the nation's oldest and largest public affairs forum, hosts this event. For more information and upcoming events, visit: SUBSCRIBE | UPCOMING EVENTS | BECOME a MEMBER | DONATE NOW | Watch & Listen | Facebook | Instagram | Twitter

The Center for Biological Diversity advocates for green energy that respects biodiversity and Indigenous cultures. In February 2024, we took significant action in Arizona. We filed an injunction with the Tohono O'odham Nation and San Carlos Apache Tribe to stop wind-power transmission lines damaging sacred sites and the fragile San Pedro River.

We also achieved a major victory with Navajo allies against proposed Black Mesa hydropower projects. These projects threatened aquifers, prehistoric sites, and Mexican spotted owl habitat. This win establishes a new nationwide policy granting Tribes veto power over permits targeting their land. More on this victory: insideclimatenews.org.

The Center for Biological Diversity, a Tucson-based nonprofit, advocates for green energy that respects biodiversity and Indigenous cultures. February 2024 brought key victories in Arizona. An injunction was filed with the Tohono O’odham Nation and San Carlos Apache Tribe to halt wind-power transmission lines damaging sacred sites and the San Pedro River. More: Twitter, ENR.

A significant win with Navajo allies, backed by 7,000 supporters, stopped Black Mesa hydropower projects threatening aquifers, prehistoric sites, and wildlife. This established a nationwide policy granting Tribes veto power over permits on their land. Details: Inside Climate News. As the Center's Russ McSpadden noted, "industrial energy plans are just greenwashing" without community consent.

During SF Climate Week, Climate One hosted 2025 Goldman Environmental Prize winners Laurene Allen and Carlos Mallo Molina. These inspiring leaders protect their communities from powerful interests, often at great personal risk. Join Co-Host Greg Dalton to explore their extraordinary actions.

Carlos Mallo Molina led a campaign to stop Fonsalía Port construction, canceled in October 2021. The terminal threatened a 170,000-acre marine protected area in Tenerife, home to sea turtles, whales, and sharks. He now envisions a marine conservation and education center.

Laurene Allen protected New England families from PFAS-contaminated drinking water. Her campaign pressured an industrial giant, responsible for toxic "forever chemicals," to close in May 2024, ending over 20 years of pollution.
