Description - Toward Environmental Justice by Institute of Medicine
Driven by community-based organizations and supported by a growing body of literature, the environmental justice movement contends that poor and minority populations are burdened with more than their fair share of toxic waste, pesticide runoff, and other hazardous bioproducts of our modern economic life. This text explores how current fragmentation in health policy could be replaced with greater coordination among central and local bodies. The text is highlighted with case studies and goes on to make recommendations to decision-makers in the areas of health professionals and outlines of health policy considerations.
