They will discuss the ways individuals can cohere and strengthen the core tenets of Democracy as well as tie the book’s lessons in time for the November election. \nAbout Daring Democracy\nAn optimistic book for Americans who are asking\, in the wake of Trump’s victory\, “What do we do now?” The answer: We need to organize and fight to protect and expand our democracy. \nAmericans are distraught as tightly held economic and political power drowns out their voices and values. Legendary Diet for a Small Planet author Frances Moore Lappé and organizer-scholar Adam Eichen offer a fresh\, surprising response to this core crisis. This intergenerational duo opens with an essential truth: It’s not the magnitude of a challenge that crushes the human spirit. It’s feeling powerless–in this case\, fearing that to stand up for democracy is futile. It’s not\, Lappé and Eichen argue. With riveting stories and little-known evidence\, they demystify how we got here\, exposing the well-orchestrated effort that has robbed Americans of their rightful power. But at the heart of this unique book are solutions. \nEven in this divisive time\, Americans are uniting across causes and ideologies to create a “canopy of hope” the authors call the Democracy Movement. In this invigorating “movement of movements\,” millions of Americans are leaving despair behind as they push for and achieve historic change. The movement and democracy itself are vital to us as citizens and fulfill human needs–for power\, meaning\, and connection–essential to our thriving. In this timely and necessary book\, Lappé and Eichen offer proof that courage is contagious in the daring fight for democracy. \nAbout the Panelists\nFrances Moore Lappé and Adam Eichen are the authors of Daring Democracy: Igniting Power\, Meaning\, and Connection for the America We Want. \n  \nFrances Moore Lappé is the author or co-author of 19 books about world hunger\, living democracy\, and the environment\, beginning with the three-million copy Diet for a Small Planet in 1971. She is also a contributing editor at Yes! Magazine and Solutions Journal. She is the cofounder of three organizations\, including Oakland based think tank Food First\, and more recently\, the Small Planet Institute\, which she leads with her daughter\, Anna Lappé. Frances and her daughter have also cofounded the Small Planet Fund\, which channels resources to democratic social movements worldwide. \n  \nAdam Eichen is a writer\, researcher\, and organizer. He serves as Campaigns Manager for Equal Citizens\, a non-partisan pro-democracy organization founded by Lawrence Lessig.\, and is also a member of the Democracy Matters board of directors. Over the past several years\, his research has focused on campaign finance\, voting rights\, and comparative election policy. \n  \nDavid Daley is a senior fellow for FairVote and the author of Ratf**ked: The True Story Behind the Secret Plan to Steal America’s Democracy\, which helped spark the recent drive to reform gerrymandering. David’s new book\, Unrigged: How Americans Are Battling Back to Save Democracy\, chronicles the victories and defeats in state efforts to reform elections and uphold voting rights. When writing for the Hartford Courant\, he helped identify Mark Felt as the “Deep Throat” source for Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein. \n  \nThis event is free and open to the public.

The goal: to push\, with a united voice\, for the design and implementation of circular economy strategies in cities worldwide. This year\, more than ever\, we need to work towards building resilient cities that recover from environmental\, social and health crisis. We believe in the circular economy as a model that will help cities to become more resilient. The Circular Cities Week will take place on Oct. 26-Nov. 1\, 2020)\, again alongside the UN World Cities Day.\n\nWhat is the #CircularCities Week\n\n“Circular Cities Week” is an annual\, decentralized global event. In 2019\, over 80 CEC Chapters signed up to organize workshops to identify opportunities and next steps to encourage implementation of the circular economy in their cities. Around 30 CEC Chapters organized the workshop and the findings can be found in this the Circular Cities Week REPORT. This process included bringing in stakeholders from city governments\, private and nonprofit sectors\, and academia—and providing a multi-stakeholder call to action. This year\, we are moving to an online format.\n  \nWhy the #CircularCities Week\nThe CEC envisions a world in which every city in every country functions and prospers through circularity\, ending the age of waste. An ambitious goal such as this requires clarity and clearly defined deadlines. “Circular Cities Week” provides this critical framework.\n\nThe condensed timeframe of “Circular Cities Week” encourages a sense of urgency and purpose designed to help stakeholders identify opportunities\, challenges and next steps for supporting the development of circularity at the city government level. The objectives of the week are two-fold;\n\n\nRaise awareness about the potential for the circular economy framework to build more resilient cities\, considering the current COVID-19 pandemic; and\nEngage citizens to design and implement a circular city and gather suggestions to create a global report gathering the top suggestions.

Michigan Prof. of Environment & Sustainability Kyle Whyte presents "Against Crisis Epistemology" DESCRIPTION:People who perpetrate colonialism often defend their actions as necessary responses to real or perceived crises. Epistemologies of crisis involve knowing the world in such a way that a certain present is experienced as new. In this talk\, Whyte will discuss newness in terms of the presumptions of unprecedentedness and urgency. According to Whyte\, these presumptions often depend on an unquestioned linear conception of time. In contradistinction to an epistemology of crisis\, he suggests that one interpretation of certain Indigenous intellectual traditions emphasizes what he calls an epistemology of coordination. Different from crisis\, coordination refers to ways of knowing the world that emphasize the importance of moral bonds—or kinship relationships—for generating the (responsible) capacity to respond to constant change. Epistemologies of coordination are conducive to responding to expected and drastic changes without validating harm or violence. \n\n\n\nKyle Whyte is Professor of Environment and Sustainability and George Willis Pack Professor at the University of Michigan School for Environment and Sustainability\, serving as a faculty member of the environmental justice specialization. Previously\, Whyte was Professor and Timnick Chair in the Department of Philosophy and Department of Community Sustainability at Michigan State University. Whyte’s research addresses moral and political issues concerning climate policy and Indigenous peoples\, the ethics of cooperative relationships between Indigenous peoples and science organizations\, and problems of Indigenous justice in public and academic discussions of food sovereignty\, environmental justice\, and the anthropocene. He is an enrolled member of the Citizen Potawatomi Nation and has partnered with numerous Tribes\, First Nations and inter-Indigenous organizations in the Great Lakes region and beyond on climate change planning\, education and policy. He is involved in a number of projects and organizations that advance Indigenous research methodologies\, including the Climate and Traditional Knowledges Workgroup\, Sustainable Development Institute of the College of Menominee Nation\, Tribal Climate Camp\, and Ngā Pae o te Māramatanga. He has served as an author on reports by the U.S. Global Change Research Program and is a former member of the U.S. Federal Advisory Committee on Climate Change and Natural Resource Science and the Michigan Environmental Justice Work Group. Whyte’s work has received the Bunyan Bryant Award for Academic Excellence from Detroiters Working for Environmental Justice and MSU’s Distinguished Partnership and Engaged Scholarship awards\, and grants from the National Science Foundation.\n\n\n\nThe event is free and open to the public.\n\nTo participate\, visit The Humanities Studio Zoom Lounge (https://pomonacollege.zoom.us/j/97855796517) on Thursday\, November 5\, at 4:30 p.m. PT.

Our City of Los Angeles is fortunate to be one of only 36 Biodiversity Hotspots on the planet. \nThis designation also means that biodiversity here is threatened\, and we need to come up with protective strategies to safeguard our area’s resilience and sustainability. Our symposium\, which will unfold over the course of the week\, will illustrate the vital importance of an integrated ecosystem of natural biodiversity and sustainable urban landscapes. \nWe are looking to provide a forum for leading area scientists to inform landscape designers and architects\, builders\, nurseries\, growers\, and homeowners on the significance of biodiversity in the Los Angeles area\, which is severely threatened by urban development. We hope this forum will aid in building an understanding of how we can affect a change in practices and achieve the goal of “a no-net-loss” biodiversity strategy. \nOur well-being fundamentally depends on nature. We must act quickly to take action with protective strategies to safeguard this unique area that we live in. We can make a difference. Join this community and symposium to protect our biodiversity hotspot. \nPlease join us and help spread the word. Garden by garden\, and park by park\, we can take the steps to change the narrative of environmental degradation. \nWe are happy to be in partnership with LASAN for this important endeavor. \n“The survival and well-being of the City’s residents also depend on ecosystem services provided by biodiversity\, including air pollution reduction\, strongly and rapidly mitigating and adapting to climate change\, mental health and educational opportunities\, water cleansing\, and aesthetic benefits. These services are built directly from an integrated ecosystem of natural biodiversity and sustainable urban landscapes.” — LA Sanitation & Environment URL:https://sustain.ucla.edu/event/2020-biodiversity-symposium/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20201118T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20201118T113000 DTSTAMP:20260403T161635 CREATED:20201112T155254Z LAST-MODIFIED:20201112T155254Z UID:12561-1605693600-1605699000@sustain.ucla.edu SUMMARY:Webinar One: Park Equity and Life Expectancy Research Findings DESCRIPTION:New research about the relationship between parks and life expectancy reveals that increasing park acreage in areas that face park deficits and lack trees could lead to significant population-level increases in life expectancy.

However\, while the worst effects of climate change have disproportionately harmed communities of color\, the historical faces of climate action have predominantly been white. The discussion will cover the environmental justice movement\, its progress and challenges\, and how corporations should get involved. \nDebra Gore-Mann is President and CEO of the Greenlining Institute. With an engineering degree and an M.B.A. from Stanford (where she was the only African American woman in a class of 300 graduate students)\, her work has spanned across the private\, public and political sectors in uplifting low opportunity communities with funding\, team building and financial and people resources. Most recently\, she led the San Francisco Conservation Corps\, America’s first urban municipal youth corps. \nAs Greenlining’s President and CEO\, Debra guides the organization’s growth and direction and serves as the unifying voice for multifaceted policy work\, bringing her unique\, intersectional perspective to bear. She works with the board to oversee the organization’s finances\, management and governance and partners with staff and board to develop programs and policy strategies to advance racial and economic justice and to strengthen ties with The Greenlining Coalition.
