SUMMARY:Dining Detritus: Zero Waste Restaurants
DESCRIPTION:This is a related program for the exhibition Designing Waste: Strategies for a Zero Waste City. \nCan design help restaurants and food service facilities go zero waste? In the third and final program related to the Designing Waste exhibition\, currently on view in the Center for Architecture galleries\, a chef\, a proprietor\, and a sustainability expert present and discuss the design interventions that have helped them reduce food waste\, improve recycling\, and move towards a circular economy.  \nIntroduction:\nChristina Grace\, CEO and Founder\, Foodprint Group; Co-author of the Zero Waste Design Guidelines \nSpeakers:\nCamilla Marcus\, Founder\, west~bourne\nElizabeth Meltz\, Director of Health\, Safety\, and Environment\, Eataly\nKelly Jacques\, Operations Manager\, Breads Bakery \nModerator:\nAndrew Blum\, Curator\, Designing Waste \nDesigning Waste: Strategies for a Zero Waste City explores how we manage waste in our buildings and neighborhoods\, and how design can help reduce the amount of waste that goes to landfill. \nEvery day\, tens of thousands of trucks filled with food\, clothing\, and other goods arrive in New York City to be delivered\, unpacked\, and consumed. And every day\, approximately 24\,000 tons of discarded materials leave the city as waste. Waste management costs New York City over a billion dollars every year. To combat this problem\, the city announced a Zero Waste plan in 2014 to reduce the amount of discards sent to landfills by 90% by 2030. \nDesigning Waste examines the architecture of New York City’s gray spaces for trash—the overlooked areas where waste is managed in our buildings. This is when waste is closest to us\, when it’s sorted and stored in apartments\, trash rooms\, basement corridors\, loading bays\, and sidewalks. And this is where architects\, designers\, and building professionals have agency to transform the waste system. \nThe exhibition is based on the Zero Waste Design Guidelines\, an expansive document that examines architectural strategies for waste reduction. \n#DesigningWaste

SUMMARY:Teaching With Weeds: Cultivating Love of Wild Plant Medicines
DESCRIPTION:Dandelion\, burdock\, violet leaf and ground ivy: just a few of the plants we’ve all encountered growing in our school gardens in between the rows of neatly cultivated tomato\, carrot and brassicas. Unwelcome as they may seem\, these plants have been valued for centuries as medicines and sources of wild food. In this workshop educators will learn ways to help young people develop their plant identification skills\, and an appreciation of the healing plants—often discarded as mere weeds—that grow abundantly all over our city. \nThis workshop is in partnership with Green Thumb and Jess Turner of Olamina Botanicals

SUMMARY:Soft Infrastructures: New Ways of Water
DESCRIPTION:Columbia GSAPP Professor and award-winning author\, Anthony Acciavatti\, will present new ways of thinking about water filtration methods along the world’s most densely populated river basin – the Ganges river in India. By incorporating the rhythms of the monsoons and “hacking” current filtration systems\, Acciavatti can give insights into the future of urban waterways and why designers must take a holistic approach to dealing with wastewater management and pressing issues surrounding drinking water. \nThe presentation will reflect on his time living near the Ganges and how that experience sparked his own ideas\, designs and alternate solutions. \nThis event is part of an ongoing series of events\, lectures and workshops for The A/D/O #WaterFutures Research Program – a yearlong investment challenging designers to research\, concept and ideate scalable solutions to the global drinking water crisis.

SUMMARY:Zone Greener: Facilitating Solar Adoption
DESCRIPTION:In 2012\, the New York City adopted a package of amendments to the NYC Zoning Resolution\, collectively called Zone Green\, to facilitate more sustainable and energy-efficient design. Zone Green addressed barriers to building thicker\, better-insulated walls. It also covered the inclusion of sustainable design strategies\, such as solar panels\, solar shading systems\, green roofs\, and greenhouses. \nFast forward six years: although Zone Green successfully solved the problems anticipated at the time\, new technologies and new barriers have since emerged. Last fall\, the Urban Green Council convened a Task Force of over 40 stakeholders to develop a roadmap for Zone Greener\, a set of potential upgrades to the Zoning Resolution that would unlock further opportunities for the next generation of green building. These recommendation are detailed in a new Urban Green report\, Zone Greener. \nPart 2 of this event series will focus on modifications to the Zoning Resolution that would continue to advance solar energy in New York City. This event will discuss progress made in the uptake of solar installations since 2012\, as well as recommendations and solutions for newly identified issues involving rooftop solar\, ground-mounted solar\, and solar batteries. \nPart 1 of this two-part series focused on building better walls. You can read more about that event here. \nSpeakers:\nLaurie Kerr\, FAIA\, LEED AP\, Director of Policy\, Urban Green Council \nAdditional speakers TBA.

SUMMARY:Wild Walk in Central Park: With One Earth Conservation
DESCRIPTION:The Climate Reality NYC Metro Chapter invites you to join us as we learn together how biodiversity loss and climate change intersect through a guided walk in our own Central Park. \nUnder the guidance and direction of One Earth Conservation’s Nurture Nature Program we will be lead by Rev. Dr. LoraKim Joyner and Gail Koelln (Climate Reality Leader)\, Co-directors of One Earth. This is a nonsectarian event which will immerse you in the spiritual aspect of nature – a force much greater than ourselves. \nOur hope is to more deeply connect to nature so that we can live with more resilience\, joy\, and contribution to life around us. For a short time we cast off our culture’s attempt to domesticate us and return to our wild selves. We begin with a guided walk that contains practices to grow five natural intelligences – emotional\, social\, multispecies\, ecological\, and spiritual. The second half of the walk we will identify birds and trees\, and enjoy the morning’s light. \nDress comfortably for about 1.5 hours outside. Bring binoculars as we will also be birdwatching! \nIf you get lost or arrive late\, text/call to 914-325-9574. For any questions\, email info@oneearthconservation.org. \nCheck back here for any weather advisories and dress accordingly. There will be an alternate indoor activity if it is too rainy to be outdoors. Please RSVP so you will get instructions under those circumstances.

SUMMARY:Sustainability ∩ Resilience Integration II: Metrics
DESCRIPTION:Metrics of Resilience and the RELi Rating System\nSustainability and resilience are two sides of the same coin. When combined with regeneration\, civility\, and health\, they create an emergent property that can be thought of as a ‘living system.’ In this presentation\, architect and eco-entrepreneur Doug Pierce of Perkins+Will simultaneously explores the theory and practice of resilience through a holistic lens grounded in biomimicry and the reductive perspective of checklists. He will offer clarity on how sustainability and resilience overlap\, and where they differ. \nThis transdisciplinary presentation will blend design\, science\, and engineering with actionable metrics from the RELi Resilience Action List and rating system that are readily available to design practitioners\, decision-makers\, and policy experts. RELi was launched in 2014 and was adopted by the USGBC at Greenbuild 2017. \nSpeaker:\nDoug Pierce\, AIA\, LEED Fellow\, Global Resilience Lab Co-Director and Senior Architect\, Perkins+Will \nFree for students; $10 for general public

SUMMARY:Funding the Future: Resilience Planning Across Public and Private Sectors
DESCRIPTION:In recent years\, resilience planning across all domains has become a crucial part of national\, state\, and local discourse. It is essential to engage policy makers and funders in early planning phases to better understand how policy can influence funding opportunities for these projects. Architects\, planners\, landscape designers\, policy makers\, financiers\, and funders can and should work together to improve this critical part of the resiliency design process. \nThis interdisciplinary program will focus on understanding cross-industry relationships and strategies to address the complexities of planning\, financing\, and insuring waterfront plans and projects. Participants will leave with a template for creating a project funding strategy\, along with a checklist of experts and professionals to involve. \nUsing Jamaica Bay as a case study for New York City’s 520 miles of coastline\, we will address the challenges of implementing forward-thinking resilient design strategies in the New York City region. \nIntroduction: Illya Azaroff\, AIA\, +LAB; Founding Co-Chair\, AIANY Design for Risk and Reconstruction Committee \nSpeakers:\nJoyce Coffee\, President\, Climate Resilience Consulting\nAlan Front\, CEO\, Conservation Pathways\nCortney Worrall\, Senior Regional Director\, Northeast Regional Office\, National Parks Conservation Association (NPCA) \nModerator: Janice Barnes\, PhD\, LEED AP BD+C\, Global Resilience Director/Principal\, Perkins + Will \nOrganized by: AIANY Design for Risk and Reconstruction Committee and the National Parks Conservation Association

SUMMARY:Lemon Creek Walking Tour
DESCRIPTION:Lemon Creek is one of the longest aboveground creeks in New York City\, and its route cuts deeply into the history of Staten Island. Once famous for its oysters and oystermen\, it was a favorite haunt of author Joseph Mitchell in the 1950s\, and is now a Staten Island Bluebelt\, harboring eagles\, peacocks\, and deer. Join writer and photographer Nathan Kensinger on a walk tracing out the lower portions of this fascinating waterway\, as it flows through historic neighborhoods and protected parklands\, and out to Prince’s Bay. \nSturdy\, closed-toed shoes are recommended for this walk\, which will involve following footpaths over streams and through wooded environments. We will start at Amboy Road and Penton Street and end the walk at Bayview Ave. and Johnston Terrace. \nThis walking tour is sponsored by Council Member Joseph Borelli. \nRain date: June 23rd.

SUMMARY:Landmark Bushwick Breuckelen Beer Tour
DESCRIPTION:Back once again by popular demand! \nJoin beer aficionado Chris Heuberger on a guided walking tour of Brewers Row dating from when Bushwick\, Brooklyn was the brewing center of America.

Come walk that history and see the 19th-century historic brewery buildings built when Bushwick was a lively hub for the beer culture of German-speaking immigrants. And of course\, we’ll end at one of the area’s newest breweries\, Interboro\, to enjoy a pint and celebrate the triumphant return of brewing to Brooklyn. \nLight rain\, we walk. Heavy rain postpones until Sunday June 3rd\, 2018.
