Even since the 2006 election of indigenous president Evo Morales and his progressive government, the social pressure to satisfy the country's immediate economic needs through extractive industries that destroy the natural environment - primarily natural gas, mining, and forestry - remains as strong as ever. [...] the government confronts a terrible legacy of ecological degradation. According to Flores, much of the Latin American left, including the Morales government, justifies "indiscriminate exploitation" by arguing that "northern countries only want us to conserve our natural resources in order to hinder our development so we won't compete with them, and our resources will be available for their future use.

The Mississippi Delta region is known as the most environmentally rich region in the US. Since industrialization and urbanization began with the movement of rural populations to larger cities, untold damage and environmental injustices have surfaced in the wake of human distribution and poverty. Chemical companies stimulated local economies but eventually led to one of the most toxic environments in the South, with some sites becoming the focus of a long-term environmental justice movement. With these cases of human and environmental degradation due to industrialization, the Environmental Justice and Urban Ecology group (EJUE) is attempting to address the link between ecology and public health in the primarily African-American neighborhoods of southwest Memphis. The long-term objective ...
