Trees, Green spaces and Discrimination: Environmental Inequity

from The Peoples Voice Podcast · host Trey Evans

Looking into why some neighborhoods in U.S. cities dont enjoy the same access to trees and green spaces. In many communities, especially those with lower incomes or predominantly marginalized populations, trees and parks are noticeably barren, leaving residents exposed to higher temperatures, poorer air quality, and limited opportunities for recreation and mental well-being. This issue is often the result of historical policies redlining, uneven urban planning, and systemic neglect which exposes deeper environmental inequities that affect the health, safety, and quality of life of individuals in those neighborhoods.Check out the webiste for more infohttp://treyevansthepeoplesvoice.com/  #thepeoplesvoicepodcast#social issuesCopyright Disclaimer Under Section 107 of the Copyright Act 1976, allowance is made for "fair use" for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research
