520 _a"Environmental Justice: Law, Policy & Regulation explores current theory and practice concerning disproportionate environmental impacts on people and places. Based on decades of experience with community engagement, interdisciplinary scholarship, and legal authorities including environmental law and civil rights, Environmental Justice examines the range of environmental threats presently facing vulnerable populations, including communities of color; poor, immigrant, and Indigenous communities; and women, children, and older adults. The fourth edition provides updated materials to address contemporary environmental justice concerns, including hazardous air pollutants in "Cancer Alley"; contaminated lands from the Arctic to the Southwest; drinking water contamination in Flint, Michigan, and Jackson, Mississippi; and the devastation wrought by hurricanes, wildfires, and other climate-related disasters across the United States. It also examines the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic and innovations for advancing environmental justice during the Biden administration, plus challenges and opportunities to continue progress during the second Trump administration. Featuring a new chapter considering international concerns for environmental justice, this new edition also expands coverage of cumulative impacts, state and local initiatives, climate justice, disaster justice, and food justice-all with an eye towards identifying modern challenges and available tools for the continuing pursuit of environmental justice"-- Provided by publisher.
