Episode notes
Ever get blamed for something you didn't do? EJ is the story of how the people who contribute the least to climate change often are forced to endure the worst impacts. In Louisiana, these communities still have past scars from slavery and the Jim Crow era. This week, Cori & Jill discuss how climate change impacts communities along socioeconomic and racialized lines. They get into the policy that's meant to protect everyone, NIMBY-ism, PIBBY-ism, and the decision-making bodies we can harness to incite change for the better.
