<a href="https://www.climateinteractive.org/en-roads/" target="_blank">EN-ROADS</a> is a free online simulation model from Climate Interactive and MIT Sloan Sustainability Initiative which is grounded in the best available science on climate impacts and solutions. The purpose
of this workshop is to educate students, staff, faculty and others in various fields about the intricacies affecting climate change. This workshop will be hosted by Office of Sustainability and our guest speaker, Polly Estabrook who retired from NASA's Jet
Propulsion Laboratory in 2022 to concentrate on meeting the climate challenge and reducing its negative impacts as much as possible.<a href="https://ucr.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_jTdmEJ_cT9WBBxT9sQvxmw#/registration" target="_blank"> Register for the Climate Action Simulation
Workshop here. </a>and see Polly's LinkedIn profile here <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/polly-estabrook-b90787/" target="_blank">

become the lead staffer on the City Council’s Energy and Environment Committee, which resulted in the landmark LA100 plan, a nation-leading policy that will make the City of Los Angeles use 100% carbon-free energy by 2035. David’s work has resulted in the
City getting serious and focused on greatly expanding electric vehicle infrastructure and solar + battery energy on buildings citywide. David also worked on the fight to eliminate oil rigs and drilling in Los Angeles, ensuring even more carbon emission protections
for the public and our most vulnerable communities. While David ran the City Council’s Energy and Environment Committee, the Council adopted the Styrofoam and plastics elimination policy, which is in the process of being implemented.<u></u><u></u></span></li><li class="m_-5856640398871191918MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0in"><b><span style="font-size:14.0pt">Date:
