SUMMARY:Emmett Institute Symposium - Charging Ahead: Cutting Vehicle Pollution in the New Trump Years 
DESCRIPTION:9am-4pm\, reception to follow\nThis is an in-person event. \nThere’s no going back. Federal climate policies face deep uncertainty\, but California remains committed to cutting air pollution and climate emissions from transportation and is obligated to do so by statutes like the Clean Air Act. States and localities are once again at the forefront of transportation and electric vehicle strategies. California has unique authority to create more ambitious motor vehicle emissions standards than the federal government\, but even those powers are under attack. Given all this\, what are the most promising — and durable — state and local strategies to focus on?    \nThis all-day symposium will explore a range of creative approaches available to cities\, counties\, and states to cut pollution from cars\, trucks\, and other transportation sources in light of threats to tailpipe emission standards. The event will also examine ways to ensure that the transition to cleaner vehicles benefits disadvantaged communities. This symposium is co-sponsored by the Environmental Law Section of the California Lawyers Association and is part of the 2nd Annual LA Climate Week. \nA keynote speaker will set the table for the day’s discussions and rally our spirits for what’s to come. Three expert panels will look beyond traditional emission standards and include a wide range of innovative policies aimed at vehicles\, infrastructure\, and pricing mechanisms. This day-long event at the UCLA School of Law is free and open to the public. The event is FREE but you must RSVP. \nREGISTER HERE \nCheck back soon for the day-of schedule and details about all the speakers and panels.

John spent many years in Silicon Valley focusing on underserved markets that had been overlooked by technologists. In 2012 he founded Zenput as CTO\, focused on retail food services operations which was acquired in 2022. After living in San Francisco for 16 years\, he moved off-the-grid to Sonoma County in 2020 where he was faced with the terrifying reality of life in the wildlands without the information needed to make informed decisions. Having developed software for over 30 years beginning at age 8\, John found himself with a life or death problem he had to solve not only for himself\, but for his community. He spent more than a year understanding the problems and then together\, with his team\, created Watch Duty in just 80 days. Today Watch Duty has a team of over 200 active and retired wildland firefighters\, dispatchers\, first responders\, and reporters supporting millions of citizens and first responders who rely on the Watch Duty App across the American West to stay safe.
