SUMMARY:Making Climate History at the Supreme Court
DESCRIPTION:Please join the Emmett Institute this Wednesday\, March 3\, at 12:15 p.m. PST\, for a talk with Harvard Law professor Richard Lazarus to discuss his book\, The Rule of Five: Making Climate History at the Supreme Court\, on the landmark Massachusetts v. EPA decision and the court’s role in environmental law and policy. \nREGISTER HERE\nWhen the Supreme Court announced its ruling in Massachusetts v. EPA the decision was hailed as a landmark\, leading EPA to regulate carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gas emissions as pollutants and making possible important environmental safeguards which the Trump administration sought to unravel\, and which President Biden is now planning to restore. The case has been recognized as the most important environmental law decision made by the Supreme Court. \nAt an Emmett Institute book talk on Wednesday\, March 3\, Richard Lazarus\, Howard and Katherine Aibel Professor of Law at Harvard Law School\, and author of The Rule of Five: Making Climate History at the Supreme Court\, will describe how accidents\, infighting\, luck\, superb lawyering\, and the arcane practices of the Supreme Court collided to produce a legal miracle. Cara Horowitz\, Andrew Sabin Family Foundation Co-Executive Director of the Emmett Institute\, will moderate the conversation.

SUMMARY:UC Berkeley Students of Color Environmental Collective Convention 2021
DESCRIPTION:Why are people of color excluded from the environmental movement? Why do so few Black and Brown folks go camping or to national parks? Why is it that Indigenous communities\, who are stewards of the land\, don’t get represented on larger environmental decisions? Why do so many students of color feel disconnected from nature and outdoor spaces? \nSCECon 2021: Our World\, Our Time\, Our Voices aims to recenter the environmental narrative around environmental justice by giving intentional space for students of color to learn about unique and intersectional environmental topics and share our own view of environmentalism. As members of a multi-faceted community\, we must come together to build harmony\, focusing on equity\, peace\, and collective liberation. Our conference is focused on democratizing environmental education through engaging panels and both individual and community-based activism workshops. \nWe hope to lay the groundwork to start a larger conversation and movement about what environmentalism means to us\, as students of color in the 21st century. SCECon 2021 is about us — because it’s our world\, our time\, and our voices. \nREGISTER HERE

SUMMARY:One Year Later: ESG in a Post Pandemic World
DESCRIPTION:Now over a year into the global pandemic\, our “new normal” is no longer so novel. Even after sickening and killing millions and impacting billions\, COVID-19 continues to rage. Throughout it all\, businesses across industries have worked to adapt to these unprecedented circumstances — with sweeping implications for environmental\, social\, and governance (ESG). From supply chains to social impact\, few aspects of corporate sustainability haven’t been rethought. \nAs we move into the second year of the pandemic\, the rollout of several vaccines promises to curb the coronavirus\, but businesses and governments increasingly are accepting that the pathogen may circulate for years\, or even decades\, leaving society to coexist with COVID-19 much as it does with other endemic diseases like flu\, measles\, and HIV. What does this mean for the future of business and ESG? \nIn this virtual panel discussion\, leaders from transportation to fashion and technology will discuss the ESG challenges their businesses and industries have faced over the course of the pandemic so far\, how they’ve responded\, and what they foresee will be the most important issues as we move into the second year of the pandemic. \nModerator:\nMike Hower\, thinkPARALLAX \nPanelists:\nAudrey Vinant-Tang\, Senior Manager\, Global Sourcing & ESG\, ViacomCBS\nJaclyn Allen\, Director\, Corporate Sustainability\, GUESS\nPaul Augustine\, Senior Manager\, Sustainability\, Lyft\nSam Ruben\, Chief Sustainability Officer and Co-founder\, Mighty Buildings \nREGISTER HERE

SUMMARY:Sustaining a Community Garden
DESCRIPTION:In 2016\, Palo Alto College launched a survey campaign to identify the most pressing issues for student retention and learning. The results showed that one of the most pressing issues was food insecurity. This concern caused Palo Alto College to partner with the San Antonio Food Bank to address the issue of student hunger with an on-campus food pantry and Community Garden for both students and community members. The neighborhoods surrounding Palo Alto College are considered a “food desert” — an area lacking access to healthy\, affordable food found at grocery stores\, farmers markets\, and healthy food providers. Programming at the garden aims to create a culture of sustainability by including educational components to inform the community about nutrition\, gardening techniques\, and space is available for community members to grow their own food and increase their food sovereignty. The Community Garden staff have partnered with the Horticulture and Agriculture program to allow students to gain hands-on experiential learning outside of the classroom that prepares them for real-world scenarios. \nREGISTER HERE

SUMMARY:Behavioral Strategies to Ditch Desktop Printers
DESCRIPTION:Replacing individual desktop printers with shared ‘multi-function’ printers (MFPs) is one of the most impactful ways campuses can reduce paper use. It also generates a suite of other benefits\, including cost savings on paper\, energy\, ink/toner\, increased security\, and reduced demand on IT staff time. Drawing on AASHE and Root Solution’s recent publication\, Ditching Desktop Printers: A Behavior Change Guide to Cutting Paper Use\, Energy Consumption and Costs\, this webinar will provide step-by-step guidance for implementing a printer consolidation campaign\, including potential intervention ideas based on the results of these surveys. \nREGISTER HERE
