"Environmental Justice" is the theme of the seventh annual Restoration Agenda Lecture Series hosted by the School of Forestry & Environmental Studies.
Prominent scholars and activists from around the country will discuss environmental justice in 11 lectures. The series will investigate the social, economic, health and legal dimensions of environmental justice, which suggests that people of color disproportionately live in unhealthy environments such as near toxic waste sites and polluting industries.
All the lectures will take place at 11:30 a.m. in Bowers Auditorium, Sage Hall, 205 Prospect St., and are free and open to the public.
The series will include brown bag lunch roundtable discussions that will follow the lectures and provide an informal forum to encourage dialogue among community members, government officials, Yale faculty, and graduate and undergraduate students.
