Trees destroyed – Sutro Reservoir, Laguna Honda

San Francisco Public Utilities Commission (SFPUC) has been destroying trees in the areas it controls, to the dismay of tree-lovers and neighbors. We’ve noted earlier that SFPUC is using the same playbook as the San Francisco Recreation and Parks Department’s “Native Resources Department” (NRD- the former Native Area Program). It’s against trees, particularly eucalyptus – San Francisco’s most numerous and ecologically important tree-species – and pro-pesticide. (See our analysis for last year, San Francisco Pesticides 2025: NRD Usage up 60%). NRD is responsible for much of San Francisco’s tree losses across the city. SF PUC, which had implemented the pesticide policy, is also cutting down trees.

Ripple chairman and San Francisco native Chris Larsen poured more than $22 million into national politics this cycle, much of it to the Democratic candidates and PACs that helped usher in a historic blue wave. In California, he spent millions boosting moderate, business-friendly candidates and measures that scored wins in deep-blue districts.
