The Goals of the Blog
Grassroots advocacy groups provide important resources to help combat climate injustice in the area. However, oftentimes, the dissemination of information can be confusing and lack immense details to the ordinary person.
I will work to address the lack of communication between industry leaders, environmental organizations, and government administrators to give peace of mind to environmental justice (EJ) areas.
​
In my first case study of Chelsea, MA, I reveal a series of potential recommendations to increase clear communication in the area. These include:
-
An updated media strategy
-
The creation of a working group
The working group will create a predetermined set of principles and techniques to disseminate information, study results, and project details promptly.
