Environmental justice is the fair treatment and meaningful involvement of all people, regardless of race, color, national origin, or income, in environmental laws, regulations, and policies. It seeks to address the disproportionate impact of environmental hazards on marginalized communities, ensuring they have a voice in decisions affecting their environment and health. The concept emphasizes that everyone deserves equal protection from environmental harms and access to healthy environments, linking closely with land use practices and the expression of social issues through street art.
