Abstract

Environmental justice means equal access to a healthful environment for all. In North Carolina, many sources of pollution disproportionately affect low-income communities and communities of color. Clinicians who recognize effects of environmental injustices can improve patient care and community health. As an example, we present the effects of industrial-scale hog operations in North Carolina. ©2018 by the North Carolina Institute of Medicine and The Duke Endowment. All rights reserved.
