SUMMARY:Externalities in Action: Air Pollution\, Public Health\, and Environmental Justice in Houston
DESCRIPTION:Join Paige Powell\, Development Director at Air Alliance Houston\, as she discusses the impacts of air pollution on physical health\, quality of life\, and economic prosperity. In her talk\, Paige will consider: \n\nWhat is the “right” amount of air pollution for a healthy and prosperous society?\nWhat are the true costs of doing business measured by the Triple Bottom Line?\nWhat are the socioeconomic implications of racial inequity and environmental injustice?\nHow can the Houston economy continue to thrive through the energy transition and beyond?\n\nPaige will provide information on Houston’s air pollution\, its related health impacts\, and those disproportionately impacted to provide thought-provoking responses to these questions. \nWhile she will address this topic from a Houston perspective\, these questions are relevant for everyone\, everywhere. Time will be provided for discussion with the audience after Paige’s talk.  Please register for this talk on www.eventbrite.com. Contact Lisa Brenskelle at gcs.lrc@gmail.com with any questions.
