All US citizens have the right to a clean and healthy environment under the 5th and 14th amendments to the Constitution. This week, Cori and Jill dig into how this does not extend to prisoners in Louisiana, and discuss the criminal justice-environmental justice overlap. This topic is new to the landscape of academic literature, and your Climate Pelicans are excited to bring you some food for thought about.
