• Discussed the importance of environmental justice initiatives to mitigate inequity and how public health professionals can address environmental racism; and
• Presented strategies and frameworks to address environmental racism, such as health-in-all-policies, just transition, and cumulative impacts policies to curtail future health disparities.
