Stereotypes, Prejudice, and Discrimination

94.9K
Humans are very diverse and although we share many similarities, we also have many differences. The social groups we belong to help form our identities (Tajfel, 1974). These differences may be difficult for some people to reconcile, which may lead to prejudice toward people who are different. Prejudice is a negative attitude and feeling toward an individual based solely on one’s membership in a particular social group (Allport, 1954; Brown, 2010). Prejudice is common against people who...

What is Energy?

58.2K
The universe is composed of matter in different forms, and all forms of matter contain energy.  The different forms of energy on Earth originate from the Sun — the ultimate energy source. Plants capture light energy from the Sun, and, via the process of photosynthesis, convert it into chemical energy. This stored energy from plants can be harnessed in many ways. For example, eating plant products as food provides energy for our body to function, and burning wood or coal (fossilized...

Energy to Drive Translocation

Mitochondrial protein import is powered by two distinct energy sources: ATP hydrolysis and electrochemical potential across the inner membrane. Newly synthesized precursors are bound by cytosolic chaperones of the Hsp70 family, which guide them to the import receptors on the mitochondrial surface. Utilizing the energy of ATP hydrolysis, Hsp70 chaperones transfer these precursors to the TOM receptors on the mitochondrial outer membrane.
Generally, polypeptides are unfolded by two distinct...

Energy and Power Signals

1.1K
In an electrical system with a resistor, voltage and current signals facilitate the measurement of power and energy across the resistor. For a continuous-time signal, the total energy over a time interval is defined as the integral of the square of the signal's magnitude over that interval. Mathematically, this is expressed as:

Organisms must balance energy intake with the energy required for growth, maintenance and reproduction. These trade-offs result in a variety of survivorship and reproductive strategies, including semelparity and iteroparity. Semelparous species, like annual plants, have only one reproductive episode in their lifetimes and consequently have short lifespans. Iteroparous species, by contrast, have many reproductive events during their lifetimes but have relatively few offspring. These two...

Area of Science:

  • Energy policy and social equity
  • Racial justice in environmental studies
  • Socio-technical systems analysis

Background:

  • The intersection of energy use and racialization is under-researched in the UK context.
  • Existing literature lacks emphasis on racially disadvantaged groups' energy experiences and structural influences.
  • A need exists to define and pursue racial justice within the UK's energy landscape.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the reasons for the research gap concerning energy use and racialization in the UK.
  • To understand the current state of research on energy and racialization at experiential and structural levels.
  • To explore pathways toward achieving racial justice in energy research and practice.

Main Methods:

  • Thematic qualitative analysis of semi-structured interviews (n=27) with energy and social researchers/practitioners.
  • Validation of findings through a participatory workshop (n=45).
  • Exploration of research gaps, current energy-racialization dynamics, and aspirations for racial justice.

    • Main Results:

    • Identified energy services with demonstrable racialized disadvantages: built environment, transport, health, and food.
    • Revealed disproportionate impacts on racially disadvantaged people through energy system governance, norms, low-carbon technology acceptance, and advice services.
    • Highlighted the need for methods to strengthen evidence in a non-extractive manner.

    Conclusions:

    • Further research is crucial on the diverse energy practices and needs of racially disadvantaged people.
    • Challenging assumptions of an archetypal low-carbon energy consumer is necessary.
    • Addressing these issues is vital for achieving energy justice during decarbonization efforts.
