Discovery Bay Climate Hotspot: Choking of the San Francisco Bay

NBC Bay Area’s Vianey Arana interviews senior scientist Jon Rosenfield from the San Franciso Baykeepers about the role climate change is playing in the explosion of the algae blooms and what’s got to be done to keep the entire bay from turning into a toxic pea soup.
