Environmental justice refers to the fair treatment and involvement of all people, regardless of race, ethnicity, or socioeconomic status, in environmental decision-making and the distribution of environmental benefits and burdens. It connects social equity with environmental policies, ensuring that marginalized communities do not disproportionately suffer from pollution or resource depletion while also being actively involved in conservation efforts and sustainable development initiatives.
