Hey everyone,

I thought I’d share the environmental justice mapper since Cire and I didn’t have a chance to in class.  Scorecard is a pollution information site that provides information on environmental justice and distribution of environmental burdens.  I entered in the zip codes of some major U.S. cities, and if you’re interested, try entering your hometown.  There isn’t data for every town, though.  Also keep in mind that the numerical values on the bar graphs are indicators rather than actual pounds of pollution released or actual number of cancer cases.  Here’s a website to look up zipcodes if you don’t know them: Zip Code Database.
