  • 1.  Environmental Justice and Engineering

    Posted 05-08-2023 08:02 AM

    Do your projects take environmental justice into account? How?

    Environmental Justice provides equal benefits and protection from environmental conditions for all people, without regard for their wealth. For background, ASCE published a series of articles (https://www.asce.org/topics/equity-infrastructure) on equity and infrastructure that deal with intersections of environmental justice with engineering issues. Thoughts?

    Hi William.

    Consider reviewing the Engineering Council's "sustainability-a5-leaflet-2021-web_pages.pdf

    Cheers,

    Thanks, Bill H. That's a useful set of guidelines from the UK, pointing out that sustainability is also a justice issue.
