Beschreibung

Environmental Justice Gains delves into the critical issue of unequal environmental protection, specifically how marginalized communities disproportionately face environmental hazards while exploring the effectiveness of current regulatory actions. It highlights how environmental justice encompasses public health, economic opportunity, and social equity, demonstrating that clean air and safe water are not universally accessible.

 
Readers gain insights into how discriminatory zoning practices and industrial siting decisions have historically exacerbated these inequalities, creating legacies of environmental racism. The book examines environmental policy and law, particularly the Clean Air Act and Clean Water Act, while assessing the Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) role in enforcement. It emphasizes the necessity of community engagement and data-driven decision-making to address persistent disparities, advocating for a comprehensive and integrated approach.

 
Case studies of successful environmental justice initiatives and analyses of ongoing challenges are used to illustrate the practical applications of its findings. Beginning with an overview of environmental justice principles, the book progresses to examine environmental injustice cases across the United States, analyzing the regulatory frameworks applied and outcomes achieved.

 
It concludes with recommendations for improving environmental justice outcomes through policy reform, community empowerment, and innovative technological solutions, making it valuable for policymakers, advocates, and community members alike.

The Adventures of Cammy Lambie -...

Mara-lee Stricker

“In this short story, you will see the tender heart of love and careful words of instruction of Mother. The law of kindness is on Mother’s tongue. She demonstrates watchful protection over Cammy and Sammy as she daily is in their presence. Parents can easily relate the mother’s heart, akin to the heart of Jesus as He is to His children. A wonderful and useful book. Had I had this book when my children were small, I certainly would have made use of it. I highly recommend this for all ages!” Patti Roberts- married homeschooling mother of seven with growing number of grand babies.“Mara-lee has given us a tremendous gift. Christians throughout history have systematically taught the faith to their children. This practice of systematic training in a catechism has become largely neglected by the Church in the last generation. Mara-lee’s hope is to bridge the gap between the old ways of training our kids up in solid doctrine, allowing them to wrestle with the deep things of God, and modern children’s story telling. I hope many find her work to be a blessing to the spiritual life of their children and a warm treasure in their home during the intimate times as the family gathers.” Pastor Jeff Durbin- married father of four, sought after for his debate skills and also the main host of ApologiaRadio.com“Mara-lee has peeked into a child’s inquiring mind and has given solid answers to questions about how to hear and respond to God’s voice. Children will love the way Cammy’s Adventures introduces them to new experiences in their lives. This delightful book will be a great tool for opening up discussions both at home and in the classroom.” Donna Lapp- married mother of 3, grandmother of 13 and great grandmother of 10. She is also a retired elementary grade school teacher.
