It has been documented that…

• Minorities and poor more frequently live near environmental hazards; the 2007 Toxic Wastes and Race at Twenty report found people of color make up more than 56 percent of the residents living in neighborhoods within two miles of commercial hazardous waste facilities.

Page 15: On a post it note, write down one word that

It has been documented that…

• Superfund site listings in minority and poor areas are discovered to a lesser extent despite legislation designed to prevent the disproportionate environmental effects of federal programs and policies on minority and low-income populations.

Ecojustice Education

• The ecological crisis is really a cultural crisis… a crisis in the way people have learned to think and thus behave in relation to larger life systems and toward each other.

• This approach acknowledges the reality of environmental injustice but sets it in a larger context that includes injustice to all life that is caused by a toxic disposal site.
