Sacoby Wilson featured in ABC News and The Washington Post on environmental injustice
Environmental justice "linked with climate change"
ABC News reports on how the urban poor suffers most from extreme environment impacts, especially this summer in Baltimore with the most severe heat attack ever recorded. City dwellers living in crowded neighborhoods with poor air quality and little green space are exposed to climate change impacts; what's worse is that they cannot afford to move out of the area.
