The Fight for Clean Air: Gender and Environmental Justice in Los Angeles and Mexico City
Abstract/Contents
- Abstract
- In the neighborhoods that are most polluted and overlooked, how are the bodies on the margins misshapen by the environmental injustices? How have the women, some who are mothers to children with asthma, have taken on the fight to combat environmental justice in their communities? What do we learn from centering women and thinking critically about gender when assessing the disproportionate impact of climate change on the most vulnerable members of communities in megacities?
