State of the Bay shares an update on the recent UN climate conference, talks to Bay Area public officials about preparing for the next Trump administration and delves into the best books for the booklover on your holiday list.

We hear from Louise Bedsworth, Executive Director at the Center for Law, Energy, and the Environment (CLEE) at Berkeley Law, and Isabel Rewick, Advisor to the Vanuatu Ministry of Climate Change, who took part in this year’s United Nations climate conference in Baku, Azerbaijan.

AND, we interview Assemblymember Damon Connolly and San Francisco City Attorney David Chiu about how new Trump administration policies might impact life here in the Bay Area.

PLUS, we’ll get advice from Luisa Smith of Book Passage on the perfect gift for the booklover on your holiday list.
