SUMMARY:Environmental Economics\, Policy and Management Monthly Seminar Series: Charles Corbett
DESCRIPTION:Energy Efficiency in Small and Medium-Sized Manufacturing Firms:Order Effects and the Adoption of Process Improvement Recommendations \n  \nSuresh Muthulingam\, Cornell University\, Johnson School of\nManagement \nCharles Corbett\, UCLA Anderson School of Management \nShlomo Benartzi\, UCLA Anderson School of Management \nBohdan Oppenheim\, Loyola Marymount University \n  \nAbstract \nIn\nmany manufacturing operations\, profitable energy efficiency opportunities\nremain unexploited. While previous studies have tried to explain the\nunderinvestment\, we focus on how the way in which a portfolio of opportunities\nis presented in a list affects adoption decisions. We use information on over\n100\,000 energy saving recommendations made to more than 13\,000 small and\nmedium-sized manufacturing firms under the Industrial Assessment Centers (IAC)\nprogram of the US Department of Energy (DOE).We find that adoption rates are\nhigher for initiatives appearing early in a list of recommendations. This\nsequence effect is surprisingly consistent and large: simply moving a\nrecommendation one position lower\, at the mid-point of a list\, has the same\neffect on average as increasing upfront implementation cost by at least 17%\nfrom the average value. Given this impact of sequence on adoption of individual\nrecommendations\, we utilize variations within our data to examine how various\nsequencing approaches affect adoption at the portfolio level. Sequences in\nwhich recommendations are listed from best to worst payback achieve higher\npotential energy savings given the investments in energy efficiency made by the\nfirms. We also observe a choice overload effect at the portfolio level\, but the\nmagnitude of this effect is small.

SUMMARY:Westside Mayors 2013
DESCRIPTION:The Westside cities – West Hollywood\, Beverly Hills\, Culver City\, and Santa Monica – are all on different but overlapping paths to bright futures.  Santa Monica is becoming Silicon Beach\, Culver City welcomed the Expo Line\, eclectic projects continue to break ground in West Hollywood\, and Beverly Hills looks forward to cutting the ribbon on the new Wallis Annenberg Center for the Performing Arts.  Each city has strategies to achieve distinct goals.  Do they need to work together to achieve mutual success or is competition healthy as each city works to attract businesses and discretionary dollars?  How do decisions made in each city affect the Westside as a whole?  What is each mayor’s vision for the future of these unique\, but connected cities? Please join the Westside Urban Forum at the Olympic Collection on Friday\, February 15th at 7:30 am with the Mayors of each of these cities in a timely conversation moderated by JR DeShazo\, Director of the UCLA Luskin Center.ModeratorJR DeShazo\, UCLA Luskin Center for InnovationPanelistsHon.

SUMMARY:Social & Environmental Justice Through Spatial Lenses
DESCRIPTION:Social & Environmental Justice Through Spatial LensesApplying Knowledge of Space\, Place & Networks to Equitable SolutionsA UCLA Luskin Faculty Executive Committee SymposiumThe Luskin Faculty Executive Committee sponsors an annual inter-departmental symposium linking scholarship to real-world practice to address critical issues. This year\, UCLA and national experts will examine the use of spatial analysis to study how space and place produce and reproduce social\, economic and environmental inequality. Luskin scholars have been at the forefront of multi-disciplinary GIS-based research and the application of spatial knowledge to solution-oriented action.\nSpeakers:Dean Franklin D.
