Published Fri, 21 Feb 2025 14:40:06 GMT

By many measures, the Bay Area’s environment is a lot cleaner that it was on the first Earth Day in 1970.The air is much less smoggy, cannery wastes aren’t dumped in San Francisco Bay, the pesticide DDT is banned, vehicles emit much less tailpipe pollution, electric cars are expanding in number, leaded gasoline is long gone, recycling programs are widely used, and endangered species — from bald eagles to gray whales — are on the rebound.But there are new challenges that weren’t around 53 years ago when former Sen. Gaylord Nelson of Wisconsin, a San Jose State University graduate, joined forces with Denis Hayes, a former Stanford student body president, to found Earth Day. Climate change has made droughts, heat waves and wildfires more severe. Population growth has pushed urban sprawl into wild areas. Fisheries like salmon have crashed. And new chemicals like PFAS compounds pose challenges.As one of America’s centers of environmental activism and o...

The Cardinals haven’t ruled out anything. Gannon said the one certainty is that he and Ossenfort are on the same page.“It’s a good question,” Gannon said. “I think the conversation — every day — that we have about that is good. He’s not going to make a move before we talk through the pros and cons. I feel very confident with a couple different plans that he’s laid forth and I’m behind him 100%. I know he’s going to ...
