“…The environmental justice (EJ) literature has documented that poor and racial/ethnic minority groups often face disproportionate exposure to environmental hazards (Brown, 1995; Brulle & Pellow, 2006; Chakraborty, Maantay, & Brender, 2011; Mohai, Pellow, & Roberts 2009). Within that literature, a growing body of work on the “climate gap” is demonstrating that socially marginalized groups face unequal and disproportionate exposure to climate change-related hazards (Grineski et al, 2014; Grineski et al, 2012; Kersten, Morello-Frosch, Pastor, & Ramos, 2012; Morello-Frosch, Pastor, Sadd, Shonkoff, 2009; Pastor, Morello-Frosch, Sadd, & Scoggins, 2010; Shonkoff, Morello-Frosch, Pastor, & Sadd, 2009; Shonkoff, Morello-Frosch, Pastor, & Sadd, 2011). However, few if any scholars have merged normative environmental justice concerns with quantification of health impacts of climate change.…”
