SUMMARY:The Indoor Air Quality Plan - "Cleaning Up Our Act"
DESCRIPTION:Indoor Air Quality measures have long been a key credit within LEED and a focus for occupant well-being. Our construction trade partners can be exposed to far more than the end-users and we believe there are opportunities to go beyond industry standard practice. In bringing together a host of subject matter experts and practitioners we will discuss how we can improve air quality conditions during the full life cycle of the construction process. Join us to hear from a panel that includes General Contractors\, an Architect who specifies healthy materials\, an MEP engineer who specializes in healthy interiors\, a demolition expert\, and an IAQ testing specialist for the best practices and emerging ideas and technologies available. \nREGISTER HERE.

SUMMARY:LEED for Cities and Communities Advisor Certificate – Training 2
DESCRIPTION:LEED for Cities and Communities (LfC) rating system was launched in December 2016. More than 240 city and community projects are registered and 126 have been certified\, improving sustainability and quality of life of more than 65 million people across 18 countries! USGBC has established LEED for Communities rating system to help leaders plan\, design\, develop\, operate\, manage\, measure and improve our communities\, to offer higher sustainability and quality of life to all and bring a new level of leadership to communities around the world.

Any type of city\, county\, village\, community\, district or neighborhood – whether existing\, new or redeveloping – anywhere in the world\, can certify to LEED! USGBC has recently launched the LfC Advisor Certificate to train professionals on the LEED for Cities and Communities Rating System. By going through a rigorous training these professionals would understand the rating system’s requirements and help projects achieve certification. LfC Advisors would have a keen understanding of the most current urban practices and demonstrate a clear commitment to professional growth in advancing LEED for Cities and Communities values. \nJoin us on September 10\, 2021 for the first-of-its-kind opportunity to understand LEED for Cities and Communities (LfC) certification process and move closer towards earning LfC Advisor Certificate!

SUMMARY:The Most Overlooked Birds in America: Females
DESCRIPTION:Female birds are typically more drab and inconspicuous than males\, leading over time to an unconscious bias towards male birds in birdwatching\, photography\, and even in our ornithology knowledge. This talk explores the history of focus on male birds\, female vocalizations\, conservation implications of overlooking female birds\, and female bird identification tips. \nJoanna Wu is a PhD student studying female birds in Ecology and Evolutionary Biology at UCLA. She previously worked at the National Audubon Society and is a member of the Galbatross Project\, a group of birders\, scientists\, writers\, and conservationists who are passionate about spreading awareness about female birds. \nThe presentation will be online at: https://bluejeans.com/956877518/7384 \nDownload a calendar invite: https://www.laaudubon.org/events/2021/10/13/tyrt38tay8wz7mzq0l4s0k8fu518g7

SUMMARY:California’s Urban Forests in a Changing Environment
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Ritter will describe his 20 years working to understand patterns and change in California’s diverse urban forests. He will describe research involving the California Urban Forest Inventory project and SelecTree. Climate change has and will continue to affect the state’s urban areas. Can we predict how urban tree species will respond to increasing temperature and variable precipitation? Ritter will discuss patterns and trends in tree selection and considerations for helping to ensure a healthy urban forest for California cities in a time of climate change and decreasing biodiversity. What should we consider when choosing a tree species for planting? Carbon sequestration potential\, aesthetics\, water use\, provenance\, and culture all play a role. Stay after the talk to pick up one of Dr. Ritter’s books or bring your own to have it signed. \nREGISTER HERE \nDr. Matt Ritter: Website / Instagram / Twitter \n\nDr. Matt Ritter is a botany professor in the Biological Sciences Department at Cal Poly in San Luis Obispo\, California\, where he studies California’s native plants and trees in the urban forest. He’s the author of several fiction and non-fiction books\, including the best selling guide to California’s flora\, California Plants: A guide to our Iconic Flora. He also wrote the funniest and best-selling guide to California’s urban forest\, A Californian’s Guide to the Trees among Us (Heyday\, 2011). He won the Cal Poly’s Distinguished Teaching Award and the International Society of Arboriculture Award for Excellence in Education.
