Study Notes

Environmental Justice

  • Environmental justice is fair treatment for everyone regarding environmental laws and policies, ensuring equal protection and access to decision-making processes.
  • Differences in equity and equality are misunderstood, devaluing the experiences of those facing environmental justice concerns.
  • Environmental injustice happens when certain groups experience disproportionately high risks and harms, often because another group seeks benefits by taking advantage of them.
  • Examples include hazardous waste facilities sited in low-income communities and historical events like the Memphis sanitation strike.
  • Environmental racism involves disproportionate targeting of minority communities for toxic burdens like landfills and hazardous waste sites (e.g., Warren County, NC PCB landfill).

Environmental Law and Policy

  • Environmental policy provides a framework for deliberate actions to prevent, reduce, or alleviate environmental harm. Environmental laws are court decisions concerning environmental protection.
  • Decision-making frameworks are designed to achieve outcomes in society. Standard principles and procedures must be followed.
  • Formal systems are governed by rules and guidelines, while informal frameworks are statements or documents explaining the desired effects.

Environmental Policy Process

  • Environmental policy processes are typically reactive instead of proactive. The process involves discussion and debate, political action, legislative proposals, law and regulations, and compliance.
  • The U.S. Constitution establishes the framework for power distribution among branches of government, including executive, legislative, and judicial branches.
  • Precedent-setting court rulings shape common law within specific environmental situations.
  • Statutory laws are formally enacted by legislative branches.
  • Organizations like the World Health Organization (WHO) and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) are involved in responding to environmental health issues. They provide global and national guidance, respectively.

Environmental Laws in the U.S.

  • Important U.S. environmental laws include the Toxic Substance Control Act (TSCA), Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA), Clean Water and Air Acts, and the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA or Superfund). These regulate pollutants emitted into air and water systems; hazardous waste; and the remediation of contaminated sites, respectively.

Toxic Metals

  • Toxic metals, including heavy metals and other metallic compounds, are hazardous substances.
  • The Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA) National Priority List of Hazardous Substances features a list of the substances known to pose the highest significant potential threat to human health.

Energy and Waste Management

  • Energy sources, like fossil fuels (coal, oil, natural gas) and alternative energy (nuclear, solar, wind, geothermal) have various benefits and drawbacks—some renewable, some nonrenewable.
  • Waste, both hazardous and general waste, poses environmental and human health concerns
  • Waste disposal and management, including landfills, recycling, composting, and incineration, are crucial to mitigating risks.
  • Various laws and regulations govern handling, storage, and disposal processes to protect human health and the environment.

Radiation

  • Radiation is energy that travels through space,
  • Radioactive materials include natural isotopes, man-made isotopes (nuclear testing, etc.) and those generated from industrial processes.
  • Ionizing radiation is high in energy, impacting atoms, potentially damaging the tissues and genetic material.
  • Non-ionizing radiation is low-energy and does not generally cause immediate visible damage. However, both categories have potential detrimental effects on public health in the long-term.

Water Quality

  • Water quality is a crucial aspect of public health
  • Laws and regulations guide drinking water quality. Systems must adhere to standards for public health protection.
  • Water sources can be affected by different contaminations, including naturally occurring, industrial, municipal and agricultural.

Occupational Health

  • Occupational health emphasizes the well-being of workers. Occupational diseases result from exposure to hazards in the workplace.
  • Common occupational illnesses affected by hazards like loud noises, toxic chemicals, repetitive motions, and radiation exposure.
  • Legal regulations like OSHA and NIOSH play vital roles in establishing workplace safety standards.

Waste Management Laws

  • Laws like the Solid Waste Disposal Act are designed to assist states and public health professionals to ensure proper management of waste and to guide proper disposal.
