Governors of California, Oregon, Washington and the environment minister of British Columbia, Mary Polak, gathered in San Francisco to commit to working together to coordinate efforts with the hope of stimulating a clean-energy economy in a region with a combined gross domestic product of $2.8 trillion. California and British Columbia already have placed a price on greenhouse gas emissions — through cap-andtrade and a carbon tax, respectively — and have also already adopted clean fuel standards. ''We are the first generation to feel the sting of climate change and we are the last generation who can do something about it,'' Washington Gov. Jay Inslee said. Under terms of the agreement announced Monday, Oregon and Washington's governors are committing their states to move forward with similar policies, even though the legislatures of both states have denied previous attempts to adopt cap-and-trade. ''California isn't waiting for the rest of the world before it takes action on climate change,'' California Gov. Jerry Brown said in a statement. ''Today, California, Oregon, Washington and British Columbia are all joining together to reduce greenhouse gases.'' The deal stems from the work of the Pacific Coast Collaborative, a group meant to organize climate change and clean energy policies in a region with 53 million people. Washington's Inslee supports a statewide cap on carbonfuel emissions, among several ideas to get the state closer to reaching goals set in 2008 to cut global warming pollution. Still, getting bipartisan support for a cap-and-trade program in Washington state will be difficult. Former Gov. Chris Gregoire aggressively pushed for and failed to get lawmakers in 2009 to approve a market-based carbon trading system. Inslee is currently leading a bipartisan legislative work group created this year to recommend strategies to tackle climate change. Two Republican lawmakers in that group have said they need to see what the economic impacts of those strategies would be. Todd Myers, environmental director at the Washington Policy Center, said before the announcement Monday that he was frustrated that the regional agreement could undermine the work of that bipartisan process. ''This seems to be a symbolic gesture that undermines that process,'' he said. In Oregon, efforts to implement cap-and-trade have met a similar fate. Lawmakers there failed to pass such a measure in 2009. Environmentalists in that state applauded Monday's announcement as good sense. ''It's very encouraging to see both the business community and our elected officials call for a common-sense, proactive approach to addressing climate change. The Pacific Coast Action Plan is an important step forward, and this event is proof that we can make meaningful progress that works for businesses, people, and the planet,'' Andrea Durbin, executive director at Oregon Environmental Council, said.

Foot of snow, 103 mph wind gust in Sierra storm RENO, Nev. (AP) — A foot of snow fell in the upper elevations of the Sierra overnight and a 103 mph wind gust blew across the mountains near Lake Tahoe before an early winter storm blew out of the area early Monday. The National Weather Service reported four to seven inches of snow fell late Monday on Tahoe's western shore, with 13 inches above 6,300 feet near Donner Pass on I-80. Kirkwood ski resort reported 14 inches on its mountain and Squaw Valley 10 inches between Tahoe City and Truckee, Calif. Carson City reported 1.5 inches of snow. Half-inch diameter hail was reported early Monday in Spanish Springs. The 103 mph wind gust was near the Mount Rose ski resort between Tahoe and Reno. Galena Bridge south of Reno reported a 71 mph gust. San Francisco jumps into soda regulation debate SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — San Francisco is getting into the debate over regulating sugary drinks. San Francisco Supervisor Scott Weiner is set to introduce a ballot measure that would levy a 2-cent-perounce tax on all sugar-sweetened beverages sold in the city, the San Francisco Chronicle reported (http://bit.ly/1dDzuoE). A can of soda, for example, would cost 24 cents more. The money would be used to fund health and nutrition programs for chil- dren. Similar soda tax measures fueled by concerns the drinks are contributing to obesity and diabetes have failed in the neighboring city of Richmond and the Los Angeles County city of El Monte. But Weiner told the Chronicle that research shows voters are willing to support the tax if the money is used to keep kids healthy. ''I try to cross my t's and dot my i's, and I wouldn't pursue this if I didn't think it had a chance,'' he said. He plans to introduce the measure this week. It would require approval from a majority of supervisors to get on the November 2014 ballot. To pass, it would need the support of two-thirds of city voters. Californians for Food and Beverage Choice, a group organized by the American Beverage Association, said in a statement that beverage taxes such as those proposed by Wiener are ''unnecessary, wasteful distractions from serious policymaking.'' Gold rush-era mercury flowing downstream FRESNO (AP) — California's gold rush may long be over, but mercurycontaminated soil from mining activities in the foothills of the Sierra Nevada continues to flow downstream, impacting fish and the environment, a new study suggests. The heavy metal tends to be loosened during major floods that occur about once a decade and likely will continue unless something is done to prevent mercury-laden sediment from eroding and ending up in the state's agricultural heartland, according to the study published online Monday in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. ''The problem is very serious indeed,'' said lead author Michael Singer of the University of St. Andrews in Scotland. During the 19th century gold rush, miners used mercury to process gold throughout the West. An estimated 26 million pounds of mercury was used for gold recovery in the Sierra Nevada and Klamath-Trinity Mountains. Scientists have long known that mercury contamination from long-ago mining ends up in sediments and in stream channels. The metal sometimes converts into a more potent form that can be consumed by fish, amphibians and waterfowl. Numerous waterways in Northern California downstream of mining activities post warnings about fish consumption. In the latest study, a group of U.K. and U.S. researchers studied soil from a Sierra Nevada mining deposit and points downstream. Levels of mercury in the sediment were up to hundreds of times higher than background levels. Then the team analyzed topographic maps, streamflow data and satellite images, and used computer modeling to show that the mercury in the Sacramento-San Joaquin River Delta and San Francisco Bay came from historic gold mining that was released during episodic floods. Charles Alpers, a research chemist at the U.S. Geological Survey's Sacramento office, said the findings show how important floods are in transporting mercury. ''This problem isn't going to go away anytime soon,'' said Alpers, who had no role in the study.
