Environmental Justice Steps To The Forefront With Major N.C. Remediation

ISSUE: Volume 14, Number 1 January 2004

ABSTRACT:

Environmental justice isn’t a new issue; virtually anyone who’s ever lived near an unwanted environmental facility has surely felt their area had been singled out to the unfair exclusion of others. But the ever-increasing development of both urban and rural areas, the growing diversification of the American populace, and the ability for groups to broadcast their concerns to a previously unseen degree have all combined to bring environmental justice issues to the forefront of the environmental industry.
