Definición

  • The term environmental racism refers to the likelihood of environmental devastation occurring predominantly in communities where poor and minority populations tend to reside. Once the dumping begins, whether from municipal dumps, hazardous waste facilities, or a variety of other industrial sites, the problems are often exacerbated.
