SUMMARY:Accelerating New California Water Storage Projects
DESCRIPTION:Record-breaking storms dropped enough water on California to cover the entire state in about eight inches of water. But very little of it was captured or stored\, a missed opportunity as more prolonged droughts intensify with climate change. In this webinar\, you will hear from leading water experts on the status of new water storage projects\, why it’s taking so long and how we can speed them up\, and what more can be done to increase the state’s storage capacity. \nREGISTER HERE \nSpeakers: \nWilliam Sloan\, Partner\, Venable LLP \nEllen Hanak\, Executive Director\, Water Policy Center\, Public Policy Institute of California \nJerry Brown\, Executive Director\, Sites Reservoir \nIntroduction: Jim Wunderman\, President & CEO\, Bay Area Council \nModerator: Adrian Covert\, Senior Vice President\, Public Policy\, Bay Area Council

SUMMARY:Opportunities for Enhanced Near-term U.S.-China Climate Action: Decarbonizing the Buildings Sector

Meanwhile\, China has the largest building stock in the world\, amounting to nearly half of the globe’s new building area. Buildings also contribute significantly to industrial emissions from the production of construction materials like concrete and steel. How can we ensure zero carbon emissions in new building development? How can we reduce emissions from existing building stocks to contribute to climate objectives? Join the California-China Climate Institute to learn from issue-experts on building decarbonization opportunities for the U.S. and China\, including examples from the State of California.  \n5:00 PM    Discussion is opened by Moderator\, Jenn Perron\, Senior Climate Policy Fellow\, California-China Climate Institute  \n5:05 PM    Opening Remarks \nBob Weisenmiller\, Research Affiliate\, California-China Climate Institute \n5:10 p.m.     Reducing Building Emissions in the U.S.  \nStephanie Greene\, Managing Director\, Carbon-Free Buildings\, Rocky Mountain Institute\nExamples from California: Title 24 standards and participation in the National Buildings Performance Standards Coalition  \nAndrew McAllister\, Commissioner\, California Energy Commission\nReducing Building Emissions in China  \nNan Zhou\, Senior Scientist\, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory \n5:50  PM    Moderated Audience Question and Answer \n6:05 PM    Closing Remarks  \nAnand Gopal\, Executive Director\, Policy Research\, Energy Innovation \nAttendance is free\, but registration is required to join.

SUMMARY:Biking while Black Documentary Screening
DESCRIPTION:In a 30-minute documentary\, BIKING WHILE BLACK: CONTINUING TO RIDE THROUGH DECRIMINALIZATION\, DISENFRANCHISEMENT AND GENTRIFICATION incorporates narratives to dig deeper into solution-based storytelling and features the actions being taken by some of our leading Black bicyclists and BIPOC community-based organizations. Cast members are paving new roads to tackle the myths\, the community safety conditions in Los Angeles\, and celebrating Black joy on two wheels. Black and BIPOC lives continue to have an unseen connection to the realms of hope and resilience. Some of the key revelations that were spoken of during our interviews were on uplifting and educating our youth to become leaders and navigators in bicycling education and mechanics\, safety education\, and engagement\, paired with mobility justice advocacy. The film connects these perspectives to transportation planning through speaking with agencies on the need to acknowledge\, hire\, and collaborate with community leaders who have been doing the work to help keep their multi-generational community members safe and informed. This second episode expands on the nine-minute short film\, BIKING WHILE BLACK: HOW SAFE ARE BLACK LIVES BICYCLING? \nPost-screening discussion with director and activist Yolanda Davis-Overstreet\, moderated by UCLA ITS Equity Research Manager Adonia Lugo. \nMore information: https://www.bikingwhileblack.com/ \nREGISTER HERE
