In State of the Bay's inaugural climate special we'll hear about climate legislation in California, discuss Bay Area cleantech startups and enjoy climate comedy.

In this "climate special" episode of State of the Bay, we'll talk with State Senator Josh Becker about climate legislation in California. Then we'll hear how Bay Area companies are innovating to create a cleaner, greener future for our state and beyond, even as some tech companies are choosing to move away from this region. And finally, we'll laugh along with two comedians injecting humor into the climate change conversation.
