Environmental Justice Organizations

Environmental Justice Organizations focus on ensuring that all communities, particularly marginalized ones, have equal access to a healthy environment and are not disproportionately affected by environmental hazards. They advocate for fair treatment in environmental policies, combating issues like pollution and climate change that impact vulnerable populations more severely. These organizations work to raise awareness, influence legislation, and promote sustainable practices, aiming to balance social equity with environmental protection for all people, regardless of their socioeconomic status or background.
