SUMMARY:The Music Industry’s Plastic-Free Evolution
DESCRIPTION:As humanity becomes more concerned about the issues surrounding climate change\, the music industry is adapting to become more sustainable\, and everyone from artists and performers\, to promoters\, venues\, and concert goers are paving the way toward a plastic-free future. \nMusicians and industry leaders have a unique platform when it comes to speaking out about issues they care about. From 1960s folk\, rock\, and soul music to 1990s grunge\, Hip Hop\, and more\, much music is rooted in social justice or movements. Over the years\, artists have helped change the world in numerous ways: addressing issues of the times from world hunger\, the Vietnam War\, Civil rights\, Women’s rights\, and LBGTQ+ rights\, to climate and the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). \nSo how do artists like Jackson Browne\, Ben Harper\, Bonnie Raitt\, Keb’ Mo’\, Jack Johnson\, U2\, and others reduce their single-use plastic on the road\, on tour buses\, backstage\, and on stage? Does the music industry make the connections between the climate crisis\, the petrochemical industry\, fossil fuels\, and plastic pollution? How do musicians demonstrate their commitment to these issues and where do they see the biggest moves being made to combat plastic pollution and our budding climate crisis?  \nJoin us on August 15th for a special 90-minute webinar where we will tackle these questions and more with: Associate Senior Director of the Think 100% podcast for Hip Hop Caucus\, Jasmine Gil; Grammy-nominated singer-songwriter\, musician Grace Potter; and Sustainability Coordinator for Jack Johnson Music & All at Once Max Tischler. The conversation will be co-moderated by music industry activist Annie Farman and Hip Hop Caucus Artist Relations Director and Cultural Producer Dawn Richard. \nREGISTER HERE

SUMMARY:Moonlight Hike Featuring Naima Bock
DESCRIPTION:Lace up your hiking boots and join us on the trails of our Coldwater Canyon Park for a Moonlight Hike. The event begins with a special performance by SubPop Records recording artist Naima Bock\, joining us from the UK. Music begins at 7pm with the hike following at 8pm. \nTreePeople’s Moonlight Hikes take night owls on a guided exploration of beautiful Coldwater Canyon Park and neighboring Wilacre Park—after hours! So grab a flashlight and join us to experience the beautiful Los Angeles evening skyline and walk under the light of the moon. Hikers of all ages and experience levels are welcome to enjoy the outdoors in either a Coyote Crawl\, Silver Bear Stroll\, or Night Owl Prowl. \nCoyote Crawl – Slow-paced informative walk aimed at taking in all the surrounding beauty and sounds. Great for kids and kids at heart!\nSilver Bear Stroll – This medium-difficulty hike is filled with fun facts and a rewarding challenge at the end with a terrific view!\nNight Owl Prowl – A 2-mile power hike with incredible views that leave you breathless with a sense of accomplishment! \nThrough a partnership with Living Earth\, there will be music before the moonlight hikes. Experience the harmony between soundscape and landscape with an inspirational outdoor musical performance. Check-in starts at 6 pm. \nBorn in Glastonbury to a Brazilian father and a Greek mother\, Naima spent her early childhood in Brazil before eventually returning to England and various homes in South-East London. This heritage combines with more recent pursuits in Naima’s music; from the Brazilian standards that the family would listen to driving to the beach\, to the European folk traditions she tapped into on her own\, and the pursuits that interest her today – studies in archaeology\, work as a gardener\, and walking the world’s great trails – Naima’s music draws from family\, the earth and the handing down of music through generations.  Naima Bock’s second solo album\, Below A Massive Dark Land is out September 27 via Sub Pop. \nThis event is open to the general public at $20 per person. Children under 15 are $10 and children under 3 are free. All children must have adult supervision. It is strongly recommended to not bring dogs to the Moonlight Hike. \nREGISTER HERE

SUMMARY:"Chinatown" Screening and Opening Reception for "What's On Tap: LA's Water Story...Source to Spigot"
DESCRIPTION:Even in the modern era\, communities in Los Angeles and around California face a variety of water challenges\, ranging from securing access to clean\, affordable water\, to contending with the reality of water supplies threatened by a changing climate. An art exhibit titled “What’s On Tap: LA’s Water Story…Source to Spigot” explores these issues and our region’s ever-changing water story.  \nThe first leg of the exhibit just closed at Avenue 50 Studio in Highland Park\, and it will soon reopen at El Tranquilo Gallery on Olvera Street\, the birthplace of Los Angeles\, at El Pueblo Historical Monument. It will be on view Aug. 24 to Sept. 29 (open Fridays through Sundays\, 11am to 3pm). It’s a vibrant spot steeped in history\, and the zanja madre — the Spanish-era aqueduct that moved water from the river to the pueblo between 1781 and 1904 — is located right outside of the gallery. \nAn opening reception on Sunday\, Aug. 25\, at 3pm will be followed by a screening of “Chinatown” at 5pm. This classic film noir\, starring Jack Nicholson and Faye Dunaway\, celebrates its 50th anniversary this year\, and still reveals many historical aspects of LA’s water story that are stranger than fiction. And quite appropriate given the topic of the exhibition and that LA’s Chinatown is only a block away. \nREGISTER HERE \nStay tuned for more info about the closing reception\, including a moderated panel discussion on local water\, which will be the afternoon of September 29. \nMore about the exhibit: https://avenue50studio.org/whats-on-tap \nWith thanks to supporters and partners! \nAccelerate Resilience Los Angeles\nCalifornia Institute for Water Resources\nEl Pueblo Historical Monument\nLos Angeles Center for Urban Natural Resources Sustainability\nUSDA Forest Service\nUCLA Luskin Center for Innovation

SUMMARY:The Science of Carbon Dioxide Removal: What Is It and Is It Needed?
DESCRIPTION:As the world navigates the necessary transition away from polluting fuels toward clean energy\, many scientists believe we must also remove climate pollution that has already been dumped into the atmosphere. The call for Carbon Dioxide Removal (CDR) grows stronger as new analyses find that the global community is not on track to meet the Paris Agreement targets.  \nIn the first webinar of a new six-part series\, we will explore the science behind CDR\, how it differs from carbon capture and storage (CCS)\, what role it plays in broader climate efforts\, and why it must be coupled with direct emission reductions. This series will explore the science\, strategies\, and policies of CDR. We will facilitate co-learning between stakeholders\, address knowledge gaps\, and emphasize the importance of engaging\, protecting\, and benefiting local communities with any proposed CDR projects. \nThis webinar is co-hosted by California Environmental Voters\, The Climate Center\, and Project 2030. \nREGISTER HERE
