UCLA Electronic Theses and Dissertations UCLA UCLA Electronic Theses and Dissertations Title Doorway to Wonder: Charting New Environmental Education and Place-making Pathways in Urban Los Angeles Permalink https://escholarship.org/uc/item/5hg118sp Author Lawson, Nicole Publication Date 2018 Peer reviewed|Thesis/dissertation eScholarship.org Powered by the California Digital Library University of California UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Doorway to Wonder: Charting New Environmental Education and Place-making Pathways in Urban Los Angeles A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Anthropology by Nicole Lannoy Lawson 2018 Copyright by Nicole Lannoy Lawson 2018 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Doorway to Wonder: Unsettling Environmental Education and Nature Place-making in Urban Los Angeles by Nicole Lannoy Lawson Doctor of Philosophy in Anthropology University of California, Los Angeles, 2018 Professor Jessica R. Cattelino, Chair Mainstream American environmental education (EE) programs often place undue privilege on inquiry-based scientific epistemologies and settler colonial wilderness ideologies (Cronon 1995b, Wolfe 2006) as the primary drivers in determining program design. Those programs in the urban setting add an environmental justice layer to these frameworks, by focusing their efforts on underserved minority youth. Specifically, they take them to nature and teach through science in an effort to provide an informed, equitable experience that might cultivate a love of nature and future environmental stewardship. In Los Angeles, the programs offered by the century-old Los Angeles Audubon Society (LAAS) and a few other local non-profits and nature centers pride their innovative (though increasingly common) focus on local place-based nature ii excursions for underserved youth, often seeking to foster environmental experiences within the source schools. This project examines these questions through the primary lens of LAAS programs and their intentional focus on science-based environmental education within the Ballona Creek Watershed. To understand their work and its impacts on the communities they hope to transform, I draw on literatures in urban anthropology and political ecology, knowledge production, settler colonialism, and the racialization of nature. I focus on the following four aspects embedded in these programs: 1) construction of “real” urban nature, 2) the centrality of rational and inquiry- based science content, 3) the precarious potential of embodied nature experience, and 4) racialized natures and their relationship to place-based community-building. Despite the transformative potential of urban environmental education, educators tend to (unwittingly) reproduce potentially restrictive hegemonic environmental values, knowledges, and practices without considering the historical context and ongoing socio-political inequities enabling them. This results in significant gaps and friction (Tsing 2005) between educators’ environmentalisms and their desires for inclusivity and justice in the environmental movement by targeting low-income communities of color. It is in the generative friction of these gaps that I suggest a rhizomic (Ogden 2011) environmental education paradigm forefronting the layered histories of local place, with an intentional integration of epistemological diversity, cultural history, and community experience to re-center environmental education as a key access point for a socially critical and ecologically aware urban citizenry. iii The dissertation of Nicole Lannoy Lawson is approved.

    Have Your City and Eat It Too: Los Angeles and the Urban Food Renaissance By Alexander Robert Tarr A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Geography and the Designated Emphasis in Global Metropolitan Studies in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Richard A Walker, Chair Professor Paul Duguid Professor Paul E Groth Professor Carolyn Finney Spring 2015 Abstract Have Your City and Eat It Too: Los Angeles and the Urban Food Renaissance By Alexander Robert Tarr Doctor of Philosophy in Geography Designated Emphasis in Global Metropolitan Studies University of California, Berkeley Professor Richard A Walker, Chair Time and time again, the residents of Los Angeles have used the promises of the “garden city” and urban agriculture to imagine a way out of the persistent problems of urban life. In the contemporary moment, alternative food system activists are again working to create a cultural movement committed to “slow,” local and small- scale community-based urban food systems – which, paradoxically, they are organizing through sophisticated digital tools and global social media. This study argues that, beyond debates over urban diets, food is a lens through which post- industrial imaginaries of an egalitarian digital society are fused with pre-industrial imaginaries of utopian, agrarian communities. The consequence of these entangled visions is a unique set of practices that attempt to inject a sense of radical possibility into an urban geography that is itself the result of decades of struggle over land use, livelihoods, and urban culture.

  • June 14, 2018 RTC Meeting Handout for Item 22
    Agron Bioenergy 860 West Beach Street Watsonville CA 95076 Office 831 383 1300: Fax 831 786 8508 George Dondero Executive Director Santa Cruz County Regional Transportation Commission 1523 Pacific Ave Santa Cruz, CA 95060 6/7/2018 Dear Mr Dondero, We are writing to you to express our serious concern about the status of the short rail line from Santa Cruz to Watsonville. The rail line is out of service as the operator cannot afford to inspect nor repair it. Rail is essential to our business, so we urge you to support the Sant Cruz RTC in approving Progressive Rail as the new operator of the short line so normal rail service can resume. Agron Bioenergy owns a multi-million-dollar Biodiesel plant on West Beach street in the disadvantaged city of Watsonville. The plant processes waste animal fats into fuel. Agron’s business plan relies on moving large amounts of freight by rail; the Agron site was purchased with the ability to spot 6 railcars for offload in mind. The anticipated rail traffic by late Q3 is around 20 railcars of raw materials a week. Agron’s plant is one of the largest biodiesel plants in California, and as such it supports both the reductions in criteria emissions and the reduction in greenhouse gases that are central to California’s emissions strategy for community and environmental health. Agron will reduce the overall carbon dioxide emissions in California by over 10000 metric tons in 2019. Agron anticipates producing 12m gallons of fuel; to be sold Watsonville. The fuel sales will bring extensive tax revenue to the city.

  • Environmental and Food Justice Toward Local, Slow, and Deep Food Systems
    9 Environmental and Food Justice Toward Local, Slow, and Deep Food Systems Teresa M. Mares and Devon G. Pe ñ a Recently, the second author had a fascinating conversation with an acquaintance who identifi es as a vegan activist. Living in the Pacifi c Northwest, she is highly committed to the Slow Food Movement and explained her philosophy of the connections between slow and local food: If you go slow that means you also go local. Slow leads to local. I only eat local grains, veggies, fruits, and nuts. Every meal is slow-cooked from organic ingre- dients grown slowly by farmers that I know personally. Many are close friends and I often work on their farms for the food I need. I have become self-reliant and I have helped the local farmers become self-reliant. This unites slow and local food ethics. Together with my vegan diet, I am reducing my own carbon footprint. The vegan philosophy means I am not guilty of infl icting pain on others including animals or the people who go hungry because so many of us still eat dead animal protein. The second author then asked this vegan friend to explain more about the communities where her farmer friends live and work. All are white farmers who live in the Skagit watershed north of Seattle or the Chehalis watershed south. When asked if the vegan activist knew the names of the Native American fi rst nations inhabiting these watersheds, her response was a disappointing surprise: Well, in the Skagit, you know, there are a lot of multigenerational farmers who are not Native American.

The study seeks to determine whether there have been discernable changes in vegetation alliances (communities), spatially or in type, within a 110-acre Study Area from the early twentieth century to the present day and how the changes compare with other similar historical analyses in California. Historical farming and ranching uses of the area are researched, and two family case studies are presented as paradigms of potential changes to vegetation as well as the connectivity with the larger socioeconomic context of Italian immigration into California. Examination of the vegetation alliances over the course of the historical study period utilizes several types of historical imagery, including twentieth-century aerial photography, ground level photography and nineteenth-century maps.

  • A Commentary Thom Andersen Get out of The
    Get Out of the Car: A Commentary Thom Andersen Get Out of the Car is a response to my last movie, Los Angeles Plays Itself. I called Los Angeles Plays Itself a ‘city symphony in reverse’ in that it was composed of fragments from other films read against the grain to bring the background into the foreground. Visions of the city’s geography and history implicit in these films were made manifest. Although Los Angeles has appeared in more films than any other city, I believe that it has not been well served by these films. San Francisco, New York, London, Paris, Berlin, Tokyo have all left more indelible impressions. It happens that many film-makers working in Los Angeles don’t appreciate the city, and very few of them understand much about it, but their failures in depicting it may have more profound causes. In Los Angeles Plays Itself, I claimed that the city is not cinematogenic. ‘It’s just beyond the reach of an image.’ Now I’m not so sure. In any case, I became gradually obsessed with making a proper Los Angeles city symphony film. I was aware of a few notable antecedents: L.A.X. by Fabrice Ziolkowski, Mur Murs by Agnès Varda, Water and Power by Pat O’Neill, Los by James Benning. These are all ambitious, feature-length films. My film is shorter (34 minutes), and it concentrates on small fragments of the cityscape: billboards, advertising signs, wall paintings, building facades. Originally it was even narrower. It began as simply a study of weather-worn billboards around Los Angeles.
