I like reading Actlocallysf, it’s a website with lots of interesting information and, thanks to the diligent work of Brian Purchia and others, it is continually kept fresh and updated. Yes, I must confess, I find myself perusing the Pet Peeves section on a regular basis.
I recently took a look at See for Yourself:
Gavin Newsom keeps track – and measures the progress and results – of every one of his policy pledges. Take a look at the Mayor’s Accountability Index.
Over 90 pages of hundreds of policy issues and updates. I was excited as I poured over the listings. Impressive, a lot of good things are getting done.
My excitement quickly turned to disappointment as I realized "wow, green business isn’t listed anywhere."
I looked into the 73 listings in Policy Area "Clean and Green." Nope. Then the 72 listings of Policy Area "Economic and Workforce Development." Nothin’ there either.
At the moment, I’m not feeling the love.
Mr. Mayor, on behalf of all the pioneering green business entrepreneurs locally and worldwide, we urge you to include "development of certified green businesses" as a policy pledge.
Thank you
Clifford Waldeck
