SUMMARY:UCLA Transportation's Bike Recycling Day
DESCRIPTION:One person’s trash is another’s sweet ride! Transportation’s popular Bike Recycling Day returns on Saturday\, April 8\, to the northwest corner of the Parking Structure 8 rooftop from 10 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. Members of the UCLA community with a valid BruinCard will have an opportunity to receive a used bike or bike parts for free. \nAvailable bikes have been repurposed from being abandoned or impounded on campus. Recycling abandoned bikes supports UCLA Transportation’s commitment to sustainability and making bicycling more accessible to the campus community. \nThose wishing to participate in Bike Recycling Day must register by Sunday\, April 2 here. Due to the limited number of bikes\, participants will be randomly selected and assigned a time slot. Participants need to be present when their time slot begins to claim their bike. Those not selected for a time slot will receive a special bike offer. \nApproximately 65 bikes or parts that equal bikes will be available. Some bikes are stripped down to their frame but offer an excellent opportunity for those interested in building their own bike from the ground up.

SUMMARY:Eyes in the Sky\, Birds in the Heart and Mind
DESCRIPTION:Counterforce Lab Salon\, ep. 5 \nAugmented Reality + Interspecies Friendship + Community-Storytelling \nDr. Francesca Albrezzi (UCLA Digital Humanities) and Yogan Müller (UCLA DMA) will explore how digital methodologies can open up immersive experiences for sensory modalities of engagement between the human and the more-than-human.  \nThis newly-to-be-built AR interface will offer a virtual space where viewers can experience the awe of avian life\, fostering interspecies friendship without encroaching on their sensitive space. Simultaneously\, they will discuss AR to facilitate community storytelling and place-making as a part of a virtual counter-map wherever iterations of the Biophilia Treehouse are welcomed.       \nDr. Albrezzi’s background includes extensive work in museums\, such as the Los Angeles County Museum of Art and the Getty Museum\, exploring the greater contextual understanding of art and culture through the use of digital visualization.    \nFree lunch! \nEyes in the Sky\, Birds in the Heart and Mind is Counterforce Lab’s 2023 lecture series exploring interspecies friendships and entering into conversations across disciplines. We ask how technology\, in combination with different knowledge systems and design\, can provide an avenue to connect with and learn from the more-than-human. Drones\, or\, “eyes in the sky\,” craan enrich our empathetic connection to the natural world\, if we think critically about how we use them.   \nMade possible with the generous support of a UCLA IDRE grant and UCLA\, Design Media Arts Department.

SUMMARY:Research Seminar: Brake and Tire Wear
DESCRIPTION:Background\nWith increasing market share of zero emission vehicles in California and reductions of tailpipe emissions\, non-combustion sources have become the dominating source of traffic emissions. Non-combustion sources of traffic emissions include brake and tire wear.  Emissions studies have been conducted on vehicular non-combustion emissions through various study designs\, including ambient measurements\, laboratory modeling\, and on-road sampling. Studies have been conducted on the metal contents and size distribution of brake and tire wear particles dispersed in the near-road environment. It is important to reassess these emissions as the vehicle fleet changes. However\, no study has been conducted to examine health impacts from brake and tire wear PM metals. \nThis study examined the distribution of PM metals associated with brake and tire wear and their ability to produce oxidative stress in the body and used this information to model PM metals and determine their association with birth outcomes and placental health outcomes in the Los Angeles area using health data funded by other sources. Health effects studies included placental abnormalities and function and birth outcomes in an ongoing NIH-funded study of 161 pregnant women in Los Angeles and pre-term births and low birth weight in 285\,614 live births in Los Angeles County from 2017-2019 from publicly available data. \nREGISTER HERE \nBiography\nDr. Michael Jerrett\, is an internationally recognized expert in Geographic Information Science for Exposure Assessment and Spatial Epidemiology. He is a full professor in the Department of Environmental Health Science\, and Director of the Center for Occupational and Environmental Health at UCLA’s Fielding School of Public Health. Dr. Jerrett earned his PhD in Geography from the University of Toronto. Over the past 23 years\, Dr. Jerrett has researched how to characterize population exposures to air pollution and built environmental variables\, the social distribution of these exposures among different groups\, and how to assess the health effects from environmental exposures. He has worked for many years on how the built environment affects exposures and health\, particularly the role of parks and green spaces on physical activity promotion and obesity prevention. He has published extensively on climate change\, including wildfires\, vulnerability to heat stress\, and public health co-benefits of climate mitigation. He serves as a standing member of the Health Effects Institute Review Committee\, as an editorial board member for the Annual Review of Public Health\, and he recently completed a 3-year term on the Geographical Sciences Committee of the U.S. National Academy of Science.

SUMMARY:Shifting Focus: Organizing for an EcoSocialist Future - A UC Regents’ Lecture by Kali Akuno
DESCRIPTION:At this University of California Regents’ Lecture\, Kali Akuno — organizer\, educator\, writer\, and advocate for human rights and social justice — will lay out a path for protecting our precious planet by discarding capitalism in favor of an eco-socialist approach that employs the democratic tools of the solidarity economy. Leading climate scientists warn that we have less than 10 years to make a serious course correction to avert a catastrophic threat to the Earth’s life systems\, including that of the human race. Working within the logic of the capitalist system\, which depends on the need for constant growth\, won’t work\, Akuno says. Instead\, he calls for a bottom-up transformation centered on the principles of decolonization\, anti-imperialism\, anti-capitalism\, anti-racism\, anti-heterosexism and degrowth. \nRSVP required for admittance. REGISTER HERE \nAdmission is free\, but registration is required for each attendee.  \nKali Akuno is a co-founder and director of Cooperation Jackson\, which is an emerging network of worker cooperatives and supporting institutions. Cooperation Jackson is fighting to create economic democracy by creating a vibrant solidarity economy in Jackson\, MS that will help transform Mississippi and the South. You can find more information about Cooperation Jackson at www.CooperationJackson.org. \nKali is also the co-editor of “Jackson Rising: the Struggle for Economic Democracy and Black Self-Determination in Jackson\, MS”\, and the author of numerous articles and pamphlets including the Jackson-Kush Plan: the Struggle for Black Self-Determination and Economic Democracy”\, “Until We Win: Black Labor and Liberation in the Disposable Era”\, “Operation Ghetto Storm: Every 28 Hours report” and “Let Your Motto Be Resistance: A Handbook on Organizing New Afrikan and Oppressed Communities for Self-Defense”.

SUMMARY:Make or Break: Transforming U.S. Infrastructure to Meet Climate Goals
DESCRIPTION:Buckle up. The transition to cleaner energy is speeding up and a pair of recent climate laws promises to really put America’s foot on the accelerator. But how these laws are implemented at the local\, state\, and national level will determine whether the U.S. can meet increasingly urgent climate goals as well as benefit communities that historically have been left behind. \nJoin the UCLA Emmett Institute’s annual symposium on Wednesday\, April 12\, to explore the new laws that are driving the clean energy transition – the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) and the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA). \nLeading lawyers\, energy experts\, environmental advocates and architects of climate legislation will share their visions for an ideal infrastructure and how to build it. What’s the role of new legal mandates and economic incentives? How can local communities play a role in this development? How can lawyers and policymakers reduce the negative effects of such unprecedented growth? Big changes are coming to every state\, city and household as a result of the IRA and IIJA. This event will provide policymakers with ideas for implementation and give students and climate-minded professionals insight into the process. \nThis day-long symposium at the UCLA School of Law is free and open to the public. It kicks off with a keynote address by David Hayes\, former Special Assistant to the President for Climate Policy in the Biden administration\, followed by the three panel discussions detailed below. \nREGISTER HERE \nSchedule: \n8:20-8:50 AM: Breakfast and Check-In \n9:00-9:40 AM: Opening Remarks \n9:40-9:50 AM: Morning Break \n9:50-11:00 AM: Panel 1: Dreaming Big: How IRA and IIJA Can Help Build an Infrastructure for the Future \n11:00-11:15 AM: Morning Break \n11:15- 12:25 PM: Panel 2: Transmission Case Study: Remaking our Power Grid for Renewable Energy \n12:25-1:25 PM: Lunch \n1:25-2:35 PM: Panel 3: Transportation Case Study: Decarbonizing Planes\, Trains\, and Automobiles \n2:35-2:45 PM: Afternoon Break \n2:45-3:00 PM: Closing Remarks \n3:00-3:45 PM: Reception \nKeynote Speaker: \nDavid J. Hayes is Lecturer in Law at Stanford Law School and a Senior Fellow at NRDC. Hayes is the former Deputy Secretary of the Interior\, and recently served in the Biden Administration as Special Assistant to the President for Climate Policy. He assisted in developing and implementing climate-related provisions of the IRA and IIJA. He’s an expert in the consideration and permitting of energy projects on public lands and waters. \nPanel 1: Dreaming Big: How IRA and IIJA Can Help Build an Infrastructure for the Future \nThe Biden administration’s Build Back Better agenda was a broad framework for remaking the nation’s social\, economic\, and environmental policies. The end result is legislation that’s smaller in scope\, and yet the IRA and IIJA create unprecedented new incentives for remaking our energy and transportation infrastructure to address climate change. Our first panel of the day will think big about the main energy and transportation goals behind these two laws and the key provisions in each to achieving those benchmarks. What are the most important implementation decisions that must be made to meet the moment? What are the biggest obstacles? This panel will put the IRA and IIJA into the context of existing environmental laws and ask how to facilitate implementation. \nPanelists: \nSylvia Chi\, Senior Policy Analyst at Just Solutions Collective \nKimberly Clausing\, Eric M. Zolt Chair in Tax Law and Policy at the UCLA School of Law \nDustin Maghamfar\, Federal Program Director at Energy Foundation \nJim Salzman\, Donald Bren Distinguished Professor of Environmental Law at the UCLA School of Law and UC Santa Barbara \nModerated by: Cara Horowitz\, Andrew Sabin Family Foundation Executive Director of the Emmett Institute on Climate Change and the Environment \nPanel 2: Transmission Case Study: Remaking our Power Grid for Renewable Energy \nAs the nation transitions from fossil fuels to clean energy\, the transmission infrastructure that forms the backbone of our power system must expand to meet growing electricity needs. This panel will explore what a grid that is fully equipped to support our transition to clean energy looks like\, and how to achieve it. The IRA and IIJA provide loans and funding for the improvement of transmission\, grid flexibility\, and resilience. How can we implement these laws to best meet our transmission goals? Are there regulatory and other impediments to the construction of critically important energy transmission infrastructure and\, if so\, how can we overcome them? In rapidly expanding our transmission grid\, how should we incorporate community input and respond to local concerns? \nPanelists: \nJennifer Chen\, Senior Manager\, Clean Energy at the World Resources Institute \nKaren Douglas\, Commissioner at the California Public Utilities Commission \nJeremy Hargreaves\, Principal at Evolved Energy Research \nModerated by: William Boyd\, Michael J. Klein Chair in Law at the UCLA School of Law; Faculty Co-Director of the Emmett Institute; Professor at UCLA’s Institute of the Environment and Sustainability \nPanel 3: Transportation Case Study: Decarbonizing Planes\, Trains\, and Automobiles \nTransportation is the top contributor to greenhouse gas emissions in California\, so it’s important to electrify the transportation sector quickly. The IRA and IIJA will invest almost $700 billion in programs relating to transportation\, but it remains to be seen how that money will be spent—and toward what aims. This panel will ask what changes we should be seeking to achieve with these investments and how to achieve those goals. Which transportation programs could or should see the most funding? How much should we redesign American infrastructure away from the automobile\, versus prioritizing a transition to electric vehicles? How much leeway will cities\, states and local communities have to shape their transportation infrastructure improvements? And how do we ensure transportation development serves communities that have historically been left behind? This panel will drill down on the intersection of electrification and urban planning. \nPanelists: \nHilary Norton\, Chair of the California Transportation Commission and founding Executive Director of FAST \nBeth Osborne\, Director of Transportation for America \nRegan Patterson\, Assistant Professor of civil and environmental engineering at the UCLA Samueli School of Engineering \nModerated by: Jonathan Zasloff\, Professor of Law at UCLA School of Law

SUMMARY:Is Solar Geoengineering a Viable Tool in the Climate Policy Arsenal?
DESCRIPTION:This is a hybrid event. For those attending virtually\, a Zoom link will be sent out the day of the event. \nAs the planet nears the critical warming threshold of 1.5C (3F)\, a class of controversial climate interventions\, often described under the umbrella term of “Geoengineering”—the intentional manipulation of Earth’s planetary environment to offset the warming effects of carbon pollution–are coming increasingly into focus on the national and international policy stage. Such manipulations potentially include what’s called “solar geoengineering” or “Solar Radiation Management” \, which refer to efforts to reduce the surface warming by the Sun (e.g. through the periodic injection of reflective particles into the stratosphere to mimic the cooling by an explosive volcanic eruption). They also include approaches to capture carbon from the atmosphere\, followed by subsequent storage beneath Earth’s surface or in the deep ocean\, known as carbon dioxide removal. \nA panel with diverse views and backgrounds on the topic will explore questions surrounding solar geoengineering.  \nThe Penn Center for Science\, Sustainability and the Media is excited to host and sponsor this event with Kleinman Center for Energy Policy and Perry World House. This event will be both in-person and streamed live and recorded for later viewing. \nREGISTER HERE
