Access to nature is an inalienable human right. The best that nature has to offer should be readily available to people of all cultural backgrounds and diverse economic levels. Similarly, man's waste, refuse and poisons-those toxics that are damaging our natural habitat-should not be foisted upon the economically disadvantaged. This section explores modern social issues and their direct impact upon environmental justice. The lesson shows how ordinary citizens are fighting for greater environmental justice for all
