In
Capstones - Summer 2024
This policy review will examine the injustices that occur in the Bay Area region of California as a result of the climate crisis, as well as current policy implications that allow the operations of big polluter companies–in particular Chevron— to operate oil refineries and pollute the surrounding environment, which typically is underserved and low-income communities. Additionally, this policy review will provide policy options that can be used to combat pollution and climate injustice within the Bay Area.
