Mayor Gavin Newsom has given his blessings to build a very large facility byt Pier 80 - MUNI Metroeast Facility. This facility will be built next to 3 Combustion Turbines very toxic that will kill the workers and other constituents who work and live near by. Millions of other that will travel on Illinois Street the new highway that will connect to the new Illinois Street Bridge. How can we call ourselves a Green City when we continue to build facilities that pollute? Are we really a Green City and do we really work to develop sustainable projects?

MUNI Metroeast Facility is being built on a very toxic site by Pier 80.

Next to this facility San Francisco Public Utilities Commission is building 3 toxic Combustion Turbines.

The so called major newspapers and the media do not want to address the real issues. The media does not want to do justice and work for the good of the constituents of San Francisco.

Please go by Pier 80 and check out the facts for yourself.
