The below information is for historical purposes only:Featuring: Dr. Paul Anastas\, Science Advisor and Assistant Administrator for Research and Development for the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.Overview:Historically\, products and processes have been regulated with the goal of reducing toxicity to acceptable levels based on human health risks. Green Chemistry is a powerful tool that can be used to mitigate the problem of toxicity before it occurs. Demonstrated successes across industry sectors have shown that Green Chemistry approaches can lead to reduced hazard\, improved performance\, and economic growth simultaneously. Dr. Anastas will discuss scientific advances in the design of intrinsically safe and environmentally benign products and the resulting paradigm shift in understanding the relationship between people\, chemicals\, and the environment.About the Lecturer:Known widely as the “Father of Green Chemistry” for his groundbreaking research on the design\, manufacture\, and use of minimally-toxic\, environmentally-benign chemicals\, Dr. Anastas has an extensive record of leadership in government\, academia\, and the private sector. \nDetails:Tuesday\, April 5\, 20116:00 pm Reception7:00 pm LectureFowler Museum of Cultural History at UCLA URL:https://innovation.luskin.ucla.edu/event/canceled-oppenheim-lecture-on-green-chemistry/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20110404T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20110404T130000 DTSTAMP:20260420T161916 CREATED:20180801T212309Z LAST-MODIFIED:20180801T212309Z UID:4360-1301918400-1301922000@innovation.luskin.ucla.edu SUMMARY:Luskin/IOE Lunch Speaker Series with Magali Delmas: "Energy Conservation Behavior" DESCRIPTION:Professor at the Anderson School and researcher for the Institute of the Environment and the Luskin Center\, Magali Delmas will present a talk at the monthly research seminar.

His talk is entitled\, “Built Environment\, Travel\, Nutrition and Health in Chinese Cities.”\nAbstract:\nUsing a longitudinal survey of households and communities in China\, this study examines the potential causal relationship between the built environment and travel behavior\, nutrition intake\, and health of urban residents. The results show that: (1) household income\, size\, and accessibility to transit and schools affect motor vehicle ownership\, though differently depending on motor vehicle type and city size; (2) increase in household income and ownership of motor vehicle reduce the likelihood of cycling or walking by adult commuters; (3) availability of fast food restaurants in neighborhood and ownership of car increase children’s consumption of fast food; (4) the numbers of accessible supermarkets and free markets have opposite effects on urban residents’ food consumption\, measured by intakes of calorie\, protein\, carbohydrate and fat. Income level positively affects intake of protein. Ownership of motorcycle positively affects intake of protein and adult intake of carbohydrate. Neighborhood accessibility to fast food positively affects carbohydrate intake; and (5) adult body mass index is affected positively by income and negatively by education level and participation in housework. Overall\, neighborhood food environment\, such as access to markets and fast food restaurants\, shows significant effects on urban residents’ food and nutrition intake\, but not significantly on their health outcomes. While some features of the built environment\, such as accessibility to transit and schools\, show little direct effect on travel behavior\, nutrition intake\, or health of Chinese urban residents. Nevertheless\, evidence suggests that their effects may be indirect\, through household vehicle ownership. \nThe Faculty Research Seminar meets on the first Monday of every month to present the latest from UCLA’s scholars.

In 1950\, only 30 percent of the world’s population lived in urban areas; by 2030\, that figure will rise to 60 percent. While cities have long propelled economic growth and brought prosperity to their residents\, how will they fare as populations increase\, temperatures rise\, natural disasters threaten\, and resources grow scarce?

To make the adoption of a FiT even easier here in Los Angeles\, Professor JR DeShazo of UCLA’s Luskin School for Innovation\, has created a customized FiT for the City of Los Angeles. His study clearly shows that a well design FiT program would jump start the greening of LA’s power grid\, would have limited near term costs\, and would provide long term savings to the City. \nNow all that remains is for leaders of the City of Los Angeles to have the courage to implement a FiT. \nOur panel will discuss the general benefits of feed-in-tariffs\, the specific plan to implement a FiT through the LADWP\, the environmental benefits of distributed power generation\, and the architectural implications of this shift from brown to green. \nPANEL FRAMER:\nStuart Magruder\, AIA LEED | Studio Nova A Architects\, Inc. \nPANELISTS:\nAngie Brooks\, AIA | Pugh + Scarpa Architects\nRhonda S.

Region Green Economy Think-Tank Day DESCRIPTION:THE GREEN ECONOMY THINK-TANK DAY will convene leaders and decision makers from various private and public sectors to build a more green and sustainable Los Angeles economy. The Luskin Center will help facilitate a break-out session that will help unite scholarship with society to advance the Los Angeles region a clean tech capital. The Luskin Center will also release its recent Clean Technology in Los Angeles report and provide its findings to key stakeholders. UCLA School of Public Affairs students Kristina Bedrossian\, Sarah Locher\, Frank Lopez and Matthew O’Keef have compiled a report on L.A.’s current status as a city in the clean technology industry. Comparing Los Angeles to other leading cities\, the authors make a number of astute observations about LA’s strengths and weaknesses and offer a number of key suggestions for how LA can change its policies to become the nation’s leader in “green” technology.
