A Brief History of Environmental Justice

I greatly appreciate this video. Would you mind if I included this in a presentation for undergraduate students?

@Cyn Moir - Environmental justice & Environmentalism are two separate movements. I encourage you to read 'Environmental Justice and Environmentalism, The Social Justice Challenge to the Environmental Movement' edited by RONALD SANDLER and PHAEDRA C. PEZZULLO to catch up with more current thinking. I admire the work you did and still do, but you're misunderstanding the distinctions between the two.

"we can leave a little bit" your fucking supid Trump

Thanks for posting.  Enjoyed video, very informative.

would really wish there to be some references!

Good Job!!!!

Victim Politics.

eh anyone here from sami

I am always amazed at how whites in areas, especially rural areas, are always omitted in these "histories." LMAO.  Insert racism instead of aliens and one can perhaps understand this cult better. Explaining things that make no sense is much easier when one blames aliens or nonsensical terms like "environmental racism." Can these race cultists be deprogramed? All indications at this point appear unlikely.

wE cAn LeAvE a LiTtLe BiT headass. 🤦🏾‍♀️

no one:
trump, an intellectual: we can leave a lil bit

Thanks. Learned a lot here.

OK answer me this....where's the best place to dump garbage/

what comes from the earth must return to the earth.....but why isn't it?

Who's here from the 3-2-1 response papers?

This is crazy interesting, thank you for sharing!

LMFAO "environmental justice"

How do you think voting can change environmental injustices communities face?

Why do think the government of Flint, MI took advantage of people of this socioeconomic status?

Oh no, we didn't just breeze through the Katrine environmental injustice like it didn't happen AT ALL

Who's here from Contemporary Environmental Issues class?

how are you verified with only 43k??? like wtf

Great and succint overview.

Really interesting video

Environmental justice is the process of achieving fair treatment and meaningful participation for every person in the development, implementation, and enforcement of environmental laws, regulations, and policies, regardless of race, color, national origin, or income.

"We can leave a little bit". That's all u gonna leave bro. Looks like I should leave a little bit of something on the lawn of Mar-a-lago.

5 pillars of Climate justice = 1 increase world population by 4 Billion, in poor countries, since 1970.
2 Blame it on the people who gave aid money to make this possible.
3 increase population by another 4 Billion by 2050 having made the children of the aid givers pay $100bn per yr "climate" money for the increase.
4 Remove the heads of the grandchildren of the aid givers.
5 "Climate justice" 100% achieved for believers!
But because photosynthesis needs CO2 to transform energy for life processes & believers don't know that, they all starve to death.
World population stabilised at 3 million BC levels!

Thank you Talia! And the producers of this video, very informative, and I found the scrolling timeline on the left side of the video especially helpful in grasping the time

Russia actually funds the environmental groups in the U.S.A, they benefit from this, and it is actually verified but it is too popular as a political talking points.

Lol ok

Ummm a hurricane is an act of nature… has absolutely nothing do with this. 🙄

I bought a McMansion in an upper-middle-class suburb. After living in the community for a few years, I found out there is naturally occurring asbestos in the area that can cause lung cancer. Who do I blame for this environmental injustice?

a great example of environmental injustice is WIN/Wheelabrator Saugus trash incinerator and unlined ash dump. I don't know how it's been able to pollute the greater Boston area as long as it has

An updated edition is needed.

Fuck earth day

What a fucking joke, this government should be outlawed for stupidity.

THIS government is out of control.

I'd love to see you post the full quote from that Trump/Wallace interview.

Here’s environmental justice in a nutshell 💩.

Does the establishment of industries in formerly colonized countries by the West also come under environmental racism?

MAGA! Stop the Democrats from making us all poor.

This is all koch brothers doing it

This is as bad as coal.mining industry THE EPS OIL INDUSTRIALS ALONG WITH FORD GM CHRYSLER CHEVRON ARE RESIONSIBLE FOR AMERICAS THEBWORLDS AIR POLLUTION AND BAD AIR QUALITY

Los angeles NEW YORK PORT ARTHUR and Houston Texas chicago and parts of Louisiana are the most pollutred cities in America. Alot of california cities have air pollution

Koch brothers need to be in.jail for there criminals activities

Detriot wouldnt be surprised if its ranked number polluted city in America

Reporter: "Its for the environment."
Trump: "We can leave a little bit 😅."

Obama was elected in 2008 not 2009

The moment you displayed a party bias you lost total credibility. This was a democratic party video, not an EPA policy focus.

Thanks for the video.
