Billionaire environmental activist and former presidential candidate Tom Steyer is selling a couple of homes in his portfolio. Last month, he parted with a Lake Tahoe home for $2.8 million, and now he is putting his longtime family home in San Francisco’s exclusive Pacific Heights neighborhood on the market for $11 million. “Our family has a ton of great memories in that house,” Mr. Steyer said in an email of the San Francisco home. There are 30 solar panels on the roof, a photovoltaic glass awning across the facade and a double-helix wind turbine on one corner to help power the house, according to the listing agent. A waterfall runs parallel to the front stairs, past the hydroponic garden and through a koi pond.
