This Environmental Justice print is a reminder that common assets, natural resources like air and water that are essential to our health and the health of ecosystems, are owned by all of the public, not the corporations who spoil them in pursuit of profit. Unfortunately, many powerful corporations continue to pollute with impunity because they have found legal loopholes and lobby and bribe politicians to avoid meaningful oversight. Only the government has enough power to hold corporations accountable for their harm to the public and the environment, so if we want justice, we need to either push our elected officials to do the right thing or elect new leaders who will. You can see a roster of environmentally responsible candidates at Jane Fonda’s climate action site https://janepac.com/. An example of why your awareness and our government’s oversite are crucial in the fight for environmental justice is a current attempt in California by the fossil fuel industries to overturn an oil drilling buffer zone meant to keep schools, parks, and communities safe. Keep an eye out for the ballot in November. A portion of proceeds from this print will go to Greenpeace to support their efforts on behalf of responsible environmental legislation. Thanks for caring!
