SUMMARY:Opportunities for Enhanced Near-term U.S.-China Climate Action: Industrial Decarbonization
DESCRIPTION:Registration is free\, but required. Register here. \nIndustrial emissions are responsible for approximately 60% of China’s greenhouse gas emissions\, and 30% of U.S. emissions. Taking action to reduce emissions from industrial sectors like iron & steel\, cement\, and the chemical industry will be critical to helping the U.S. and China meet their mid-century carbon neutrality goals. What technological innovations and policy tools are available to the U.S. and China\, particularly within this current decade? Join us to hear from issue-experts on opportunities in energy and materials efficiency\, electrification\, and the circular economy\, including sharing insights from a new report\, Decarbonizing Industry in the U.S. and China. \nAgenda \n5:00 PM Discussion is opened by Moderator\, Jenn Perron\, Senior Climate Policy Fellow\, California-China Climate Institute \n5:05 PM Reducing Industrial Emissions in the U.S. and China \n\nHongyou Lu\, Senior Scientific Engineering Associate\, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory\nQi Zhang\, Professor in the Department of Thermal Engineering\, Northeastern University of China\n\n5:35 PM Commentary and Reactions \n\nJackie Wong\, Director\, Industry\, Hydrogen\, and Innovation Group\, Climate & Clean Energy Program\, Natural Resources Defense Council\n\n6:00 PM Moderated Audience Question and Answer \n6:15 PM Event Closes

SUMMARY:UCLA AUD Spring 2023 Events: Dana Cuff presents "Architectures of Spatial Justice"
DESCRIPTION:Join us to celebrate AUD Professor Dana Cuff and her latest book\, Architectures of Spatial Justice — a field-defining work that demonstrates how architects are breaking with professional conventions to advance spatial justice and design more equitable buildings and cities. \nAs state violence\, the pandemic\, and environmental collapse have exposed systemic inequities\, architects and urbanists have been pushed to confront how their actions contribute to racism and climate crisis—and how they can effect change. Establishing an ethics of spatial justice to lead architecture forward\, Dana Cuff shows why the discipline requires critical examination—in relation to not only buildings and the capital required to realize them but privilege\, power\, aesthetics\, and sociality. That is\, it requires a reevaluation of architecture’s fundamental tenets. \nOrganized around projects and topics\, Architectures of Spatial Justice is a compelling blend of theory\, history\, and applied practice that focuses on two foundational conditions of architecture: its relation to the public and its dependence on capital. The book draws on studies of architectural projects from around the world\, with instructive case studies from Chile\, Mexico\, Japan\, and the United States that focus in particular on urban centers\, where architecture is most directly engaged with social justice issues. \nEmerging from more than two decades of the author’s own project-based research\, Architectures of Spatial Justice examines ethically driven practices that break with professional conventions to correct long-standing inequities in the built environment\, uncovering architecture’s limits—and its potential. \nLearn more about the book via AUD News.
