Yesterday I went to Maywood here in the Southland. The city is one, if not the most, densely populated cities in the United States. The Environmental Justice issues that engulf that city are astounding. Next door in the city of Vernon, the entire city is a maze of factories which I'm told by Maywood city officials are the source of their EJ problems. On Monday March 2 March 2 meeting of the Bioethics Interest Group will be held. Warren Lux, M.D., Director, Program in Human Research Ethics,U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, will talk about Human Environmental Exposure Research: Ethical Considerations and their Regulatory Application.
The topic of Ethical Considerations in EJ Communities is a timely topic and I'm glad to see EPA taking the lead in this important topic.
