Show Notes
The city’s contract with San Diego Gas & Electric is up for renewal. The deal could be lucrative but some are concerned city leaders could be asking for too little. Plus, the rift between St. Anne Catholic Church and Logan Heights residents started over street parking but is being fueled by a cultural divide. Also, as the number of coronavirus cases rise in San Diego, demand for testing is creating a supply shortage, hampering the region’s ability to fight the pandemic. And, nuclear fusion, the dream of clean, cheap nuclear energy has been just that — a dream, until now. In addition, Coronado-based Citizens' Climate Lobby has won a prestigious national award for its advocacy for national policies to combat climate change. Finally, even though Comic-Con this year was unlike any other, the virtual Comic-Con@Home convention can be enjoyed long after it is over.
