Majora Carter城市改建的故事

Sustainable development often skips over minority neighborhoods, leaving them with more pollution and fewer parks. In one South Bronx community, 40 percent of New York’s commercial waste and over 60,000 diesel truck trips a week created dire health risks, with childhood asthma rates seven times the national average. Yet, grassroots efforts turned a $10,000 grant into a $3 million park, showing that community-led change is possible. True progress demands putting those most affected by environmental injustice at the center of urban planning.
