Focus: Environmental Justice and Climate Advocates.. Corporate Opponents. Get to the heart of environmental justice and climate change.

Emergency Management steps in as a support entity planning for the disasters from environmental and climate change impacts.

The center\heart of environmental justice and climate will come with a focus of the advocates on the corporations and main contributors to contamination in communities not only in the U.S. but globally.

Globally, consider the frenzy for Cobalt in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) and the plight of the workers in dangerous conditions, and the environmental impact.

Now is the time to recycle and put other uses to existing fossil fuel by-products mentioned (plastics, chairs, tables, etc.) in the hearing by the representative from Louisiana. Cleanup the damage that has occurred to let the planet heal itself.

Change must occur NOW.
