在這個充滿情感的演講中，麥克阿瑟獎得主Majora Carter談到她在紐約南布朗克斯區，為爭取環境正義所付出的努力，也談到這區的弱勢居民如何被錯誤的都市政策所害。

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.
