The War Isn’T Over: The Decolonial Praxis Of Laying Bare Environmental Violence In The #Nodapl Movement, Sadé Holmes
The War Isn’T Over: The Decolonial Praxis Of Laying Bare Environmental Violence In The #Nodapl Movement, Sadé Holmes
Theses & ETDs
Modern/colonial states and corporate interests perpetually engage in industrial practices that cause environmental violence ( NYSHN and WEA 2014 ), and th is is a continuation of the logics of modernity/coloniality that developed at the onset of settler colonialism in the Americas (Mignolo 2000; Quijano 1991). Decolonial art plays an integral role in the formation of responses to modernity/coloniality (Maldonado-Torres 2002) and environmental violence, which can be clearly seen within the #NODAPL movement (Martineau and Ritskes 2014). This thesis engages in a qualitative content analysis of creative writings of contemporary Indigenous women artists in a #NODAPL-inspired issue of the Apogee …
Multi-Criteria Suitability Analysis Of Green Infrastructure Targeted At Groundwater Recharge And Flood Mitigation In Sarasota, Fl, Julia Windsor
Multi-Criteria Suitability Analysis Of Green Infrastructure Targeted At Groundwater Recharge And Flood Mitigation In Sarasota, Fl, Julia Windsor
Theses & ETDs
Traditional means for urban storm water management have fallen short in keeping up with the demands of urbanization. Flooding from impermeable surfaces, aquifer depletion from lack of recharge via percolation and over extraction are problematic facets of urban life. Water quality for potable use is threatened by utilization trends as well as from contamination due to mismanagement of storm water and runoff. Green infrastructure has risen in popularity as a potential route for development to take to mitigate these urban ills as an alternative to traditional “grey” infrastructure. Utilizing geographic information systems (GIS), I standardized and reclassified ten layers of …
A Social-Ecological Sustainability Analysis Of Sarasota Food Forests, Kaylynn Elizabeth Low
A Social-Ecological Sustainability Analysis Of Sarasota Food Forests, Kaylynn Elizabeth Low
Theses & ETDs
This thesis draws upon previous research in ecological sustainability and social sustainability to implement a framework that incorporates both aspects when determining the long-term viability of a green space; specifically food forests. Principles of civic ecology and agroecology were drawn upon to develop this framework. Ecological sustainability was quantified using data collected from inventorying the foundational species of local food forests, which for this research was fruiting trees. For the purpose of this research, the term “tree” was broadened to include woody, fruiting plants. The trees were measured in terms of their health, productivity, and abundance within the established boundaries …

Low Carbon Land Use: Paris, Pittsburgh, And The Ipcc, John R. Nolon
Elisabeth Haub School of Law Faculty Publications
This article describes strategies that local governments are employing to both mitigate and adapt to climate change, using their state-given powers to plan community development and to regulate private building. Local governments have significant legal authority to shape human settlements and, in so doing, lower CO2 emissions from buildings and vehicles, increase the sequestration of carbon by the natural environment, and promote distributed energy systems and renewable energy facilities that lower fossil fuel consumption. Local elected leaders are highly motivated to avoid the on-the-ground consequences of our changing climate. The effects of climate change manifest themselves at the local level, …
Experience Design In Leisure Studies, Parks, Recreation, And Tourism, Neil R. Lundberg
Experience Design In Leisure Studies, Parks, Recreation, And Tourism, Neil R. Lundberg
Faculty Publications
This article provides a response to the article “Leisure Studies is for Experience, Not Industry,” by Harmon (2018). In responding to Harmon’s critique, I address two important issues; both could be expanded into full-length articles but are treated only briefly in this response. First, it is critical to clearly understand and differentiate between the related concepts of experience design, experience industries, and experience economy, so I will provide a preliminary differentiation. Second, and in connection with the differentiation of experience-based concepts, I briefly discuss the need for curriculum reform or refocus within the broad discipline of leisure studies, parks, recreation, …
Environmental Law—How It Got There Matters: Trail Smelter Evades Cercla Responsibility For The Aerial Deposition Of Hazardous Waste, Ryan K. Sullivan
Environmental Law—How It Got There Matters: Trail Smelter Evades Cercla Responsibility For The Aerial Deposition Of Hazardous Waste, Ryan K. Sullivan
Western New England Law Review
The Trail Smelter, operated by Teck Cominco Metals, Ltd., is an integrated smelting and refining complex in Trail, British Columbia. It is situated approximately ten miles north of the United States-Canadian border. In the early 1900s, the smelter was at the center of an international lawsuit that led to a landmark decision of international environmental law. Now, almost a century later, the smelter, still in operation, is responsible for widespread contamination on tribal lands located within Washington State. Once again, the smelter is embroiled in a protracted legal battle, this time facing liability under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and …

Black Lives Matter, Civil Rights, And Health Inequities, Raja Staggers-Hakim
Western New England Law Review
Despite the social, economic, and political advancements, African Americans have made in recent decades, inequities between White and Black Americans remain in a number of areas. Nowhere are these inequities more apparent than in health care and health outcomes. African-Americans experience illnesses, including diabetes and heart disease, at higher rates than Whites; they also experience a higher mortality rate across all causes. Racial bias and prejudice negatively affect the health of African Americans across all social strata, influencing how health professionals interact with and treat their Black patients, increasing stress, and resulting in lower quality of life. Limited economic mobility …

Social License To Regulate: Consumer-Producer Collusion And Related Policy Risks For Consumer-Facing Regulation, Nathan D. Richardson
Social License To Regulate: Consumer-Producer Collusion And Related Policy Risks For Consumer-Facing Regulation, Nathan D. Richardson
Faculty Publications
Used a gas can recently? If not, prepare for a surprise—they’ve become harder to use due to government-mandated design changes aimed at reducing air pollution. Faced with persistent environmental and other challenges, government regulators have increasingly turned to similar regulations on consumer products. But these consumer-facing regulations create new policy and political problems for regulators, different from those associated with traditional industry-facing regulation. This paper looks in depth at three case studies of consumer-facing regulation: emissions controls on gas cans, efficiency standards for light bulbs, and European vehicle fuel economy standards. In each case, there is strong evidence for widespread …

"Hear Us, See Us!": How Mothers Of Color Transform Family And Community Relationships Through Grassroots Collective Action, Jennifer Elena Cossyleon
"Hear Us, See Us!": How Mothers Of Color Transform Family And Community Relationships Through Grassroots Collective Action, Jennifer Elena Cossyleon
Dissertations
This dissertation illuminates the local grassroots collective action of women of color and the transformative effects their community organizing efforts have on community and family relationships. Prior research highlights the reciprocal relationship between identity formation and collective action (Moore 2008; Gravante and Poma 2016; Polletta 2001; Whittier 2013; White 1999). Analysts have studied how the intersecting identities of participants motivate and contour collective action (Crenshaw 1991; Law 2012; Moraga and Anzaldúa 1981, 2015) and how collective action processes influence participants’ gendered lives and biographies (McAdam 1999; Perry 2013; Warren, Mapp and Kuttner 2015). Less understood however, are how participation in …

Collaboration Across The Curriculum: Urban Planning & Public Health, Lula Geyre
Senior Honors Theses and Projects
The way our communities are designed impacts our health. and there is an increasing need for collaboration between urban planners and public health professionals. Yet, it is not clear to what extent universities are preparing public health and planning students to work together. Our research will shed light on this important topic by evaluating the course requirements for both of these disciplines in accredited institutions and look at how they are addressing interprofessional issues such as land development, transportation policies, air/water quality, and community growth issues. The current study explores the availability of interdisciplinary courses in accredited undergraduate and graduate …

What Drives Household Recovery After Disasters? A Case Study Of New York City After 2012 Hurricane Sandy, Divya Chandrasekhar, Robin Rohfeder, Yu Xiao, Donovan Finn
School of Marine & Atmospheric Sciences Faculty Publications
Community recovery from disasters depends on how its subunits, such as households, fare. But the current knowledge on this topic is fragmented and undervalues a household’s agency for action, which can result in narrowly designed, and sometimes counterproductive, recovery plans and aid policies. In this article, we examine various internal and contextual characteristics of households to answer the question, what factors influence household recovery the most and how? Using logistical regression analysis on random sample survey data collected from households affected by the 2012 Hurricane Sandy in New York City, NY, we discuss the influence of various socioeconomic factors, knowledge …
Towards An Interdisciplinary Approach To Food Accessibility Research, Mohammed Rabiu Abubakari
Towards An Interdisciplinary Approach To Food Accessibility Research, Mohammed Rabiu Abubakari
Community and Public Affairs Doctoral Program Student Scholarship
An approximately 54.4 million people or 17.7% of the U.S population live in areas without nutritious food outlets, have low access to a vehicle and have challenges accessing a nutritious food outlet. The lack of access to nutritious food outlets mainly affects low-income residents of both urban and rural areas and remains a challenge because the deprived residents mostly depend on innutritious food outlets such as neighborhood convenience stores, which can be detrimental to their health. Researchers of varying disciplines have examined the problem of food access, however, in a piecemeal nature. This paper, therefore, critically examines research across two …
Is It Time For A Public Transit Renaissance?: Navigating Travel Behavior, Technology, And Business Model Shifts In A Brave New World, Susan Shaheen, Adam Cohen
Is It Time For A Public Transit Renaissance?: Navigating Travel Behavior, Technology, And Business Model Shifts In A Brave New World, Susan Shaheen, Adam Cohen
Journal of Public Transportation
Travel behavior is undergoing a period of significant change in the United States. In 2016, public transit ridership fell in almost all major U.S. metropolitan regions. While Americans are still heavily dependent on the personal automobile for mobility, technological and societal changes are transforming how mobility is accomplished. This paper reviews the convergence of five trends leading to fundamental changes in public transportation: (1) changing generational behavior toward suburbanization and automobility; (2) new attitudes toward information communications technology; (3) shifting attitudes toward sharing and mobility on demand; (4) innovative alternatives to work and non-work travel; and (5) an increasing number …
What Hope For Health In All Policies’ Addition And Multiplication Of Equity In An Age Of Subtraction And Division At The Federal Level?: The Memphis Experience, Amy T. Campbell
Saint Louis University Journal of Health Law & Policy
Increasingly, people recognize that social factors, such as poverty, the living environment, and educational status, substantially affect health outcomes. A “health in all policies approach” (HiAP) seeks structural reform of policymaking to require purposeful consideration, across an interconnected range of public sector actors, of the health equity and justice policy-level considerations of these factors. With the election of Donald J. Trump as 45th President in the United States, however, the U.S. entered a world where the math of the day is division and subtraction, rather than addition or multiplication. And yet, hope in HiAP remains through examples of innovative approaches …
