SUMMARY:Conservation for Cities: Luskin Innovators Speaker Series Featuring Robert McDonald
DESCRIPTION:Luskin Innovators Speaker Series Featuring Robert McDonald\nReception\, Presentation\, Panel Discussion\, Author Q&A\, and Book Signing. Panelists to be announced. \nRSVP HERE\nAbout the Book\nIt’s time to think differently about cities and nature. Understanding how to better connect our cities with the benefits nature provides will be increasingly important as people migrate to cities and flourish in them. All this urban growth\, along with challenges of adapting to climate change\, will require a new approach to infrastructure if we’re going to be successful. Yet guidance on how to plan and implement projects to protect or restore natural infrastructure is often hard to come by. \nWith Conservation for Cities\, Robert McDonald offers a comprehensive framework for maintaining and strengthening the supporting bonds between cities and nature through innovative infrastructure projects. After presenting a broad approach to incorporating natural infrastructure priorities into urban planning\, he focuses each following chapter on a specific ecosystem service. He describes a wide variety of benefits\, and helps practitioners answer fundamental questions: What are the best ecosystem services to enhance in a particular city or neighborhood? How might planners best combine green and grey infrastructure to solve problems facing a city? What are the regulatory and policy tools that can help fund and implement projects? Finally\, McDonald explains how to develop a cost-effective mix of grey and green infrastructure and offers targeted advice on quantifying the benefits. \nWritten by one of The Nature Conservancy’s lead scientists on cities and natural infrastructure\, Conservation for Cities is a book that ecologists\, planners\, and landscape architects will turn to again and again as they plan and implement a wide variety of projects. \nAbout the Author\nDr. Robert McDonald is Senior Scientist for Sustainable Land Use at The Nature Conservancy\, where he is lead scientist for the organization’s efforts to figure out how to make cities more sustainable. He holds a Ph.D. in Ecology from Duke University\, and has published more than 30 peer-reviewed publications\, many of them on the science of how cities impact and depend on the environment. He blogs for The Nature Conservancy’s Cool Green Science blog and has published two recent essays on urban/environment interactions in a collection called Taking Sides: Clashing Views in Global Issues (McGraw-Hill) and in The Chronicle of Higher Education.

SUMMARY:IOES Climate Series: A Tale of Two Cities: Los Angeles and Beijing
DESCRIPTION:Climate change is the existential crisis of the 21st century. How it plays out\, how we can curb it\, and how we adjust to the changes already underway will define our generation. \n\nThis fall\, the La Brea Tar Pits and Museum\, in collaboration with UCLA Institute of the Environment and Sustainability\, has designed a new kind of climate series: a four-night conversation between the L.A. community and some of the world’s experts on all things climate. \nDATES:\nOctober 5 – Climate Change Cliff Notes\nOctober 19 – Earth and Human Climate\nNovember 2 – A Tale of Two Cities in a Hotter World: Los Angeles and Beijing\nNovember 16 – Imagined Futures for a Hotter Planet \n\nThursday\, November 2 A Tale of Two Cities: Los Angeles & Beijing\nIt is tough to feel urgency when climate change seems like something happening to future generations\, in faraway lands. The reality is\, it is and will affect all of us\, in every city on the planet. And it’s not all bad\, by the way—some cities and people could benefit from global warming. To make climate change personal\, local\, and real\, let’s talk about how it will affect two of the greatest cities in the world\, Los Angeles and Beijing. We’ll compare notes on each city’s infrastructure and governance\, actual on-the-ground impacts\, and how residents might react. \nConversation with \nAlex Hall\, UCLA Professor of Atmospheric & Ocean Sciences and Director\, IoES Center for Climate Science \nBrad Shaffer\, UCLA Evolutionary Biologist and Director\, UCLA La Kretz Center for California Conservation Science \nAlex Wang\, professor at UCLA School of Law \nModerated by \nStephanie Wear\, Senior Scientist and Strategy Advisor at The Nature Conservancy
