SUMMARY:Current Status and Future of the Global Plastics Treaty (Presented by UCI\, Global Ocean Forum)
DESCRIPTION:The Monmouth University Urban Coast Institute (UCI) and Global Ocean Forum (GOF) will host the webinar “Current Status and Future of the Global Plastics Treaty” on Feb. 4 at 11 a.m. EST. The webinar will assemble an international group of experts to explore the progress\, as well as the failures\, toward addressing plastic pollution on a global scale while assessing its various implications. \n\n\n\nKey points of action include identifying and addressing the stumbling blocks to treaty adoption\, considering the implications of addressing the entire plastics life cycle\, ensuring national commitments and transparency\, forming explicit guidelines for establishing baselines\, addressing international trade measures\, respecting Indigenous rights and knowledge systems\, and ensuring a science-based approach while endorsing a living treaty. \n\n\n\nPanelists will include: Intergovernmental Negotiating Committee on Plastic Pollution Executive Secretary Jyoti Mathur-Filipp; Monterey Bay Aquarium Chief Conservation and Science Officer Margaret Spring; Ocean Voices Programme Head of Science Policy Research Marjo Vierros; and Center for International Environmental Law Senior Legal Campaigner (Upstream Plastics Treaty) Daniela Durán.

Decade of Ocean Science for Sustainable Development Vision 2030. The webinars aim to mobilize civil society around critical ocean and climate action identified in the report on Assessing Progress on Ocean and Climate Action 2022-2023 (“ROCA” report). The ROCA report reviews progress made on climate and ocean initiatives\, making it a useful tool for discussion of strategies for achieving climate goals moving forward. Click here to watch the first webinar\, “Catalyzing Party and Community Action on Ocean\, Climate and BBNJ\,” held in April. \n\n\n\nThe ROCA Report identified plastics as a key issue impacting global marine systems.

SUMMARY:Exploring the “How” of Sustainability Transformations
DESCRIPTION: This talk by Dr. Robin Leichenko\,  of Rutgers University is part of the Climate Crisis Teach-in. \nAddressing the climate crisis and related challenges provides many opportunities for \npromoting sustainability transformations. Yet significant questions remain about what such \ntransformations might entail\, how to support them\, and how to sustain and scale these \nefforts. This talk explores the practical\, political\, and personal dimensions of \ntransformation\, drawing upon the model of the “Three Spheres of Transformation”.   The \ntalk also considers recent efforts to promote sustainability transformations\, based upon \nthe speaker’s work with university students and her on-going research on bicycling and \nnon-motorized transportation infrastructure. The talk discusses implications and lessons \nlearned from these case examples for fostering and supporting transformative change.

SUMMARY:The Courage to Challenge Racial Injustice and Build Equity in Education: A Conversation with Ruby Bridges
DESCRIPTION:Social Justice Academy Professional Development Series Fall 2024 Series\nA Conversation with Ruby Bridges in recognition of the 70th Anniversary of Brown v. Board of Education\nCo-moderated by Vernon Smith\, Ph.D.\, and Zaneta Rago-Craft\, Ed.D. \nCo-sponsored with the Monmouth University Intercultural Center \nRuby Bridges is a civil rights icon\, activist\, author\, and speaker who at the age of 6 was the first Black student to integrate an all-white elementary school alone in Louisiana. She was born in Mississippi in 1954\, the same year the United States Supreme Court handed down its landmark decision ordering the integration of public schools. Her family later moved to New Orleans\, where on Nov. 14\, 1960\, Bridges began attending William Frantz Elementary School\, single-handedly initiating the desegregation of public education. Her walk to the front door of the school was immortalized in Norman Rockwell’s painting “The Problem We All Live With”\, in Robert Coles’ book “The Story of Ruby Bridges”\, and in the Disney movie “Ruby Bridges”. \nShe established the Ruby Bridges Foundation to provide leadership training programs that inspire youth and community leaders to embrace and value the richness of diversity. Bridges is the recipient of numerous awards\, including the NAACP Martin Luther King Award\, the Presidential Citizens Medal\, and honorary doctorate degrees from Connecticut College\, College of New Rochelle\, Columbia University Teachers College\, and Tulane University. Bridges is also the author of “Through My Eyes”\, “This Is Your Time”\, “I Am Ruby Bridges”\, and “Dear Ruby\, Hear Our Hearts”\, released in January 2024. In March 2024\, she was inducted into the National Women’s Hall of Fame.

SUMMARY:Producing the Beatles
DESCRIPTION:Based on his acclaimed podcast\, Producing the Beatles\, Jason Kruppa explores the music of the Fab Four from the perspective of the one person whose point of view has never been properly and thoroughly examined: their producer\, George Martin. Using innovative techniques to break down their recordings\, we’ll discover how the Beatles went from learning their way around the studio to becoming masters of the art of recording\, with their producer working side by side with them each step of the way. And finally\, with re-recordings and detailed recreations of Martin’s orchestral scores that allow us to hear individual instrument parts\,\, we’ll learn how his arrangements enhanced and shaped the Beatles’ music. \nZoom Link will be provided upon registration.

SUMMARY:Producing the Beatles
DESCRIPTION:Based on his acclaimed podcast\, Producing the Beatles\, Jason Kruppa explores the music of the Fab Four from the perspective of the one person whose point of view has never been properly and thoroughly examined: their producer\, George Martin. Using innovative techniques to break down their recordings\, we’ll discover how the Beatles went from learning their way around the studio to becoming masters of the art of recording\, with their producer working side by side with them each step of the way. And finally\, with re-recordings and detailed recreations of Martin’s orchestral scores that allow us to hear individual instrument parts\,\, we’ll learn how his arrangements enhanced and shaped the Beatles’ music. \nZoom Link will be provided upon registration.
