Synopsis

"Renewable Energy Mandates" explores how governments worldwide use legal mechanisms to promote sustainable energy, addressing climate change and energy security. The book examines incentives, like tax credits, penalties for non-compliance, and infrastructure investment obligations driving the shift from fossil fuels. It highlights that while mandates are vital, their effectiveness depends on careful design and enforcement.

 
For example, feed-in tariffs can incentivize renewable energy projects, while carbon taxes can discourage fossil fuel use. The book analyzes different types of legal mandates, using case studies from various countries to evaluate successes and failures. It connects to economics, examining the economic impacts on energy prices and job creation, and to political science, analyzing the political feasibility of implementing renewable energy policies.

 
Beginning with the evolution of energy policy and the growing recognition of climate change, the book progresses through legal concepts, incentives, penalties, and infrastructure investment. A unique aspect of this book is its comparative approach, identifying best practices across different jurisdictions. It aims to provide a balanced assessment of the strengths and weaknesses of different types of mandates, offering valuable insights for policymakers, legal professionals, and anyone interested in a sustainable energy future.

    Designing and building machine learning (ML) systems can seem daunting for beginners, but understanding the foundational steps and principles can simplify the process. At its core, ML system design involves a series of well-defined steps that guide the transformation of raw data into valuable insights through predictive models. Here’s a beginner’s guide to understanding and implementing these steps effectively. 
    The first step in designing an ML system is problem definition. Clearly defining the problem you aim to solve is crucial. This involves understanding the business context, identifying the goals, and determining the type of problem—whether it is classification, regression, clustering, or another ML task. A well-defined problem ensures that the subsequent steps are aligned with the desired outcomes. 
    Once the problem is defined, the next step is data collection and preprocessing. Data is the backbone of any ML system, and its quality significantly impacts the performance of the models. Collect data from various sources and ensure it is relevant to the problem. Data preprocessing involves cleaning the data to handle missing values, removing duplicates, and normalizing the data. It also includes feature engineering, which involves selecting, modifying, or creating new features that enhance the predictive power of the model. 
    Finally, the deployment and monitoring phase ensures that the ML model is operational and continues to perform well over time. Deploy the model to a production environment where it can make real-time predictions or be used in batch processing. Implement monitoring systems to track the model’s performance and detect any drift in data distribution that might require retraining the model. Regularly update the model with new data to maintain its accuracy and relevance.

    Battling Over Birth: Black Women and the Maternal Health Care Crisis reveals hard truths—powerful findings on the role of racism, coercion, inadequate prenatal care, the pressures undermining breastfeeding, and the lack of access to alternatives to a broken maternal health-care system as key threads of black women's birth experiences. 
     
     
     
    Battling Over Birth, a new human rights report from Black Women Birthing Justice, shares stories from over 100 women who recently gave birth in California. The report reveals the culture of fear and coercion that has transformed birth into a battleground, a deep lack of trust of our hospitals, and a broken maternal healthcare system that fails too many black women. The report shakes up our understanding of where state violence happens, and who it happens to; putting the human rights spotlight onto a system that is often unaccountable to black communities. Battling Over Birth also provides solutions. It makes a series of recommendations, including community accountability boards to hold hospitals accountable; increased access to midwifery and doula-care; recruitment and training of more health-care professionals of color; culturally-competent, empowering prenatal and postpartum care; greater access to home birth and birth centers; and a sharp reduction in the use of C-sections.
