<P class=style9 align=left>In commemoration of the 40th anniversary of
Earth Day, UCR’s Center for Sustainable Suburban Development and the
Public Policy Initiative will host “Earth Day: Toward A Sustainable
World,” at the April 22 Randall Lewis Seminar Series.</P>
<P class=style9 align=left>A panel of UCR faculty from a variety of
disciplines will discuss the meaning and importance of sustainability in
the context of the earth’s natural resources (including water), habitat
preservation, agricultural practices, international conflict and security,
and global poverty, hunger and disease.</P>
<P class=style9 align=left>The seminar will be held at 5:30 p.m. in
Conference Room E, UCR Extension Building, 1200 University Ave., Riverside
(See <A href="http://cssd.ucr.edu/Images/Room E Map.pdf">MAP</A>).</P>
<P class=style9 align=left>UCR faculty panelists will be
<STRONG><STRONG>Michael Allen</STRONG>, </STRONG>Professor and Chair of
Plant Pathology and Microbiology and Chair of the Center for Conservation
Biology, who will speak on sustainability of habitats;<STRONG> Juliann
Allison, </STRONG>Associate Professor of Political Science and Associate
Director, CSSD, who will speak on sustainability through the reduction or
elimination of inter- and intra-national conflict and terror;<STRONG>
Linda Fernandez,</STRONG> Associate Professor of Economics, Environmental
Sciences, who will speak on water and natural resource sustainability;
<STRONG>G. Richard Olds,</STRONG> Vice Chancellor of Health Affairs and
Dean of the developing School of Medicine, will speak on global health;
<STRONG>Timothy Paine,</STRONG> Professor of Entomology, who will speak on
the importance of agricultural sustainability and how it can be achieved.
<STRONG>Anil Deolalikar,</STRONG> Associate Dean of the College of
Humanities, Arts and Social Sciences; Professor of Economics; Director of
CSSD and Co-Director of One Health Center, will serve as moderator and
will speak on sustainability through reduction of global poverty, hunger
and disease.</P>
<P class=style9 align=left>"We have put together a faculty panel to talk
about sustainability in its broadest sense, Deolalikar said. "Most people
normally think of sustainability in terms of natural resources, climate
change and habitat preservation, but the future sustainability of the
world depends on several other factors as well. For instance, the world's
population is expected to increase from around 6.5 billion today to 9
billion in 2050. This will have major implications for the environment,
energy and nonrenewable natural resources.</P>
<P class=style9 align=left>"Also, a world in which you have widespread
poverty, hunger, disease, and inter- and intra-national conflict is not a
secure and sustainable world," he said. "Our panel will address these
elements of sustainability, and will try to answer the question: what
steps can we take to make the world more peaceful, secure and
sustainable?" </P>
<P class=style9 align=left> </P>
<P class=style12 align=center>The seminars are free of charge. </P>
