Plans are in the works for man-made Treasure Island in San Francisco Bay to become a new neighborhood with thousands of new homes, office space and even an organic farm. However, critics worry that the island is sinking and a rise in sea level could jeopardize the scheme.

Guests:

Michael Cohen, director of economic and workforce development for the City and County of San Francisco

Will Travis, executive director of the San Francisco Bay Conservation and Development Commission

Eric Brooks, sustainability chair for the San Francisco Green Party and coordinator of Our City
