Environmental Equity

Environmental equity ensures that all communities have equal access to a clean and healthy environment. It addresses the disproportionate environmental burdens faced by marginalized and disadvantaged groups. Environmental equity involves fair distribution of environmental benefits and risks. Policies promoting environmental equity aim to prevent environmental injustice and ensure all communities are protected from pollution and environmental hazards. Achieving environmental equity requires inclusive decision-making and equitable resource allocation. It is crucial for social justice and sustainable development.
