Pollution is bad. It affects all areas of our lives. However, our economy is directly connected to pollution. Factories create jobs and pollute at the same time. We bury the polluted waste, as if hiding it will remove the danger. People of color are most injured by pollution. The most destructive factories and dumping of toxic waste are placed in marginalized neighborhoods. These are the people who do not have the money and power to block any form of pollution. How does pollution affect these families?
