SUMMARY:Luskin Innovators: Speaker Series featuring James Salzman
DESCRIPTION:Join the UCLA Luskin Center in welcoming James Salzman\,Donald Bren Distinguished Professor of Environmental Law\, as he discusses his\nmost recent book\, Drinking Water: A\nHistory\, over refreshments and lunch.REGISTER HEREPanel:James Salzman\, Donald Bren Distinguished Professor of Environmental Law\, UCLA LawJ.R. DeShazo\, Director and Professor\, UCLA Luskin Center for Innovation\, UCLA Luskin School of Public AffairsStephanie Pincetl\, Director and Professor-in-Residence\, California Center for Sustainable Communities at UCLANoah Garrison\, Environmental Science Practicum Director\, UCLA Institute of the Environment and SustainabilityChris Solek\, Programs Director and Senior Scientist\, Council for Watershed Health \nAbout the Book: \nWhen\nyou turn on the tap or twist the cap\, you might not give a second thought to\nwhere your drinking water comes from. But how it gets from the ground to your\nglass is far more complex than you might think. Is it safe to drink tap water?\nShould you feel guilty buying bottled water? Is your water vulnerable to\nterrorist attacks? Considering the water contamination disaster in Flint and\nwith springs running dry and reservoirs emptying\, where is your water going to\ncome from in the future? \nIn Drinking\nWater: A History\, professor James Salzman provides answers to these\nquestions. Bloody conflicts over control of water sources stretch as far back\nas the Bible yet are featured in front page headlines even today. Only fifty\nyears ago\, selling bottled water sounded as ludicrous as selling bottled air.\nSalzman weaves all of these issues together to show just how complex a simple\nglass of water can be. His book also highlights how drinking water relates to\nthe most pressing issues of our time- from globalization and social justice to\nterrorism and climate change- and how humans have been wrestling with these\nproblems for centuries. \nAbout the\nAuthor: \nJim\nSalzman is the Donald Bren Distinguished Professor of Environmental Law with\njoint appointments at the environment school at UCSB and the law school at\nUCLA. In more than eight books and eighty articles\, his broad-ranging\nscholarship has addressed topics spanning drinking water\, trade and environment\nconflicts\, policy instrument design\, and the legal and institutional issues in\ncreating markets for ecosystem services.  A dedicated classroom teacher\,\nSalzman was twice selected as Professor of the Year by students at Duke. He\nfrequently appears as a media commentator and has lectured on environmental\npolicy on every continent except Antarctica. Active in government policy\ndebates\, he serves on both EPA’s National Drinking Water Advisory Council and\nthe Trade and Environment Policy Advisory Committee (reporting to EPA and\nUSTR). He has served as a visiting law professor at Columbia\, Harvard\,\nStanford\, and Yale as well as at universities in Australia\, China\, Israel\,\nItaly\, Portugal\, and Sweden. His most recent book\, Drinking Water: A History\, was\npraised as a “Recommended Read” by Scientific American and is in its third\nprinting.
