Green Amendments For The Generations

4 days ago

More often than not, incinerators, factories, and other polluting industrial facilities are sited in or near low income and minority communities, who have to be subjected to these pollutants around the clock. This creates a hostile, uncomfortable, and unhealthy environment to grow and live, which makes it harder for children to learn and adults to work, or stay healthy, ultimately perpetuating the cycle of poverty and furthering the racial disparity in this country.

What if we can do away with these "sacrifice zones" and make sure everyone has the opportunity to live and grow in a healthy, clean environment? We'd probably be one step closer to tackling the problem of systemic racism in America.
