Last week we reported on a controversy at the former military base in San Francisco called the Presidio which recently became a national park that is attempting to be financially self-sufficient.

A plan to tear down the houses has drawn protests from advocates for the city’s large homeless population and spawned a contentious battle between them and Bay area environmentalists. Living On Earth’s Peter Thomson prepared our report.
