Environmental Racism in St. Louis

The Sierra Club has collaborated with the Interdisciplinary Environmental Clinic at Washington University School of Law as well as Action St. Louis, Arch City Defenders, and Dutchtown South Community Corporation to create the report "Environmental Racism in St. Louis." This was done in order to help educate the St. Louis community about environmental injustices that disproportionately endanger public health for people of color and low-income individuals in St. Louis, and to help advocate for systemic changes to remedy these injustices and enhance public health.

For the Sierra Club the effort was led by Beyond Coal Organizer Leah Clyburn.
