“What I see is a shade structure that has been basically whittled down by all the regulations and policies that make it really difficult — and you can call it illegal — to produce shade where needed,” @uclaurbnplnning's @VKellyTurner told @FastCompany. luskin.ucla.edu/turner-says-…

Humbled and excited to have an opportunity to work with this amazing team to understand and address inequities at the tap! An inspiring opportunity for community engaged research! @NuestraCasa1 @WeThePeopleDet @MonicaLewisPat2 @gregspierce @AllisaG_Hastie @ahern98 @LuskinCenter
🎆Today we announce key additions to our portfolio of investments! We have funded our very first cohort of Stage 1: Seed Partnership grantees. Congratulations 🙌🏽 to these early-stage impact lab teams working in partnership to design practical solutions. impact.stanford.edu/article/…
Important research from @UCLAlatino led by @chayitomajano!
"The persistent burden experienced by Latino and Black populations is the reflection of the structural disadvantages these communities have faced throughout the pandemic"

Excited to share this new study which "produces the first joint, nationally- representative analysis of household reliance on wells and septics in decades"
🚨🚨🚨New @AWRAHQ journal study led by Ariana Hernandez (@ahern98) & me:
Where we had the crazy idea that updating a post-1990 understanding of who & where in the U.S. relies on (off regulated grid) private wells and septics might prove valuable.

Excellent paper from @gregspierce and @ahern98 (having seen it before publication) that resets our baseline understanding of who relies on wells and septic systems

Important research around the intersection of climate, incarceration, and tribal rights in the US!
"Often left out of research on climate and carceral facilities, the tribal prisoner population is one of the most invisible and vulnerable in the country."
Overcrowded and underfunded, tribal jails aren’t ready for a warming world. Produced in partnership with @typeinvestigate, co-published with @ICT. Research/data by @Carceral_ECO. bit.ly/44QoO3e
🚨 Check out this new research brief @silvia_gee @gregspierce and I just put out!
We find that distrust of tap water is associated with negative past experiences, distrust of water providers, and poor residential plumbing.
🚨New Research by @UCLAlatino with @LuskinCenter, in partnership with @First5Kern, finds that regardless of race & ethnicity, 77% of surveyed caregivers felt concerned with the safety of the tap water in their homes. #DrinkingWaterWeek
