During the past two decades environmental justice EJ has become part of the environmental health language. This page is dedicated to a basic understanding of EJ and the Environmental Justice Movement EJM. The Department of Environmental and Occupational Health Sciences DEOHS has recognized environmental injustices as an important phenomenon to be investigated. Increasing awareness of EJ may influence the focus on underserved communities in the future of scientific research in environmental health. What is Environmental Justice EJ usually refers to the belief that all citizens, regardless of ethnicity or socioeconomic class, should equally share in the benefits of environmental amenities and the burdens of environmental health hazards. Most definitions have common themes of justice in distribution, procedures, and process Pijawka et al. Collins 1. 99. 2. Environmental Justice EJ is not universally defined. EJ has different meanings to various communities and institutions therefore, the EJ definition is based in place, time, and perspective. It is often explained using examples of environmental injustices, focusing on the distribution of environmental risks. Most definitions talk about the environment as a place where we live, work, play, and pray it is the environment of the everyday. Because of this new view of the environment, the Environmental Justice Movement EJM has caused a major shift in the idea of environmentalism Taylor, 2. Pena, 2. 00. 5. Distributional Justice refers to spatial fairness of the physical distribution of environmental benefits and burdens. Unequal siting of landfills. Unequal siting of polluting industries. Unequal extraction of natural resources. Disparate access to recreational space. Disparate exposure to toxicants on the job. Unequal arrangement of public infrastructure, such as high ways, public transportation, garbage collection, etc. Procedural Justice refers to providing equal protection from environmental hazards regarding rulemaking and enforcement. Unequal protection in cleaning up environmental hazards. Unequal enforcement in environmental quality control. Disparate risks in safe food consumption standards. Disparate impact of cumulative assessment of environmental quality control i. Process Justice refers to providing opportunities for meaningful citizen involvement in decisions that affect environmental health, including access to information and adequate authority for local knowledge Pena, 2. Disparate access to information on exposure to toxicants. Disparate access to regulatory agencies during review on rules, and regulations. Disparate access to the scientific community on research priorities, and design. Unequal study subject participation in clinical trials. Lets use the EPAs definition as an example Environmental Justice is the fair treatment and meaningful involvement of all people regardless of race, color, national origin, or income with respect to the development, implementation, and enforcement of environmental laws, regulations, and policies. Fair treatment means that no group of people, including a racial, ethnic, or a socioeconomic group, should bear a disproportionate share of the negative environmental consequences resulting from industrial, municipal, and commercial operations or the execution of federal, state, local, and tribal programs and policies. Meaningful involvement means that potentially affected community residents have an appropriate opportunity to participate in decisions about a proposed activity that will affect their environment andor health the publics contribution can influence the regulatory agencys decision the concerns of all participants involved will be considered in the decision making process andthe decision makers seek out and facilitate the involvement of those potentially affected. The Principles of Environmental Justice 1. Adopted, Washington, D. C., October 1. 99. First National People of Color Environmental Leadership Summit. We, the People of Color, are gathered together at this First National People of Color Environmental Leadership Summit, to begin to build a national movement of all peoples of color to fight the destruction of our lands and communities, do hereby reestablish our spiritual interdependence to the sacredness of our Mother Earth we respect and celebrate each of our cultures, languages and beliefs about the natural world and our roles in healing ourselves to insure environmental justice to promote economic alternatives which would contribute to the development of environmentally safe livelihoods and to secure our political, economic and cultural liberation that has been denied for over 5. Principles of Environmental Justice. Environmental justice affirms the sacredness of Mother Earth, ecological unity and the interdependence of all species, and the right to be free from ecological destruction. Environmental justice demands that public policy be based on mutual respect and justice for all peoples, free from any form of discrimination or bias. Environmental justice mandates the right to ethical, balanced and responsible uses of land and renewable resources in the interest of a sustainable planet for humans and other living things. Environmental justice calls for universal protection from extraction, production and disposal of toxichazardous wastes and poisons that threaten the fundamental right to clean air, land, water and food. Environmental justice affirms the fundamental right to political, economic, cultural and environmental self determination to all peoples. Environmental justice demands the cessation of the production of all toxins, hazardous wastes, and radioactive substances, and that all past and current producers be held strictly accountable to the people for detoxification and the containment at the point of production. Environmental justice demands the right to participate as equal partners at every level of decision making including needs assessment, planning, implementation, enforcement and evaluation. Environmental justice affirms the right of all workers to a safe and healthy work environment, without being forced to choose between an unsafe livelihood and unemployment It also affirms the right of those who work at home to be free from environmental hazards. Environmental justice protects the rights of victims of environmental justice to receive full compensation and reparations for damages as well as quality health care. Environmental justice considers governmental acts of environmental injustice a violation of international law, the Universal Declaration on Human Rights, and the United Nations Convention on Genocide. Environmental justice recognizes the special legal relationship of Native Americans to the US government through treaties, agreements, compacts, and covenants affirming their sovereignty and self determination. Environmental justice affirms the need for an urban and rural ecology to clean up and rebuild our cities and rural areas in balance with nature, honoring the cultural integrity of all our communities, and providing fair access for all to the full range of resources.
