Course materials for Quantifying Environmental Justice, taught as Environmental Science 4201 at University of Minnesota, Morris in Spring 2023. Description: The concept of justice has received increasing attention in environmental fields in recent years, particularly since the murder of George Floyd in May 2020. But the field of Environmental Justice has existed since the late 1970s, when black communities were fighting the siting of toxic facilities in their neighborhoods. In spite of this, environmental students often leave college without a strong foundation to address questions of justice. In this course, we will take a data-driven approach to questions of justice. How is justice defined and measured? What data is available to evaluate questions of justice? What skills do we need to answer these questions? We will attempt to answer those questions through readings in classic and contemporary environmental justice, lab exercises to develop statistical and geographical skills, and an intensive case study to apply our thoughts and skills to real-world questions.
