EPA offers $2B to clean up pollution, develop clean energy in poor and minority communities

The Biden administration is making $2 billion available to community groups, states and tribes to clean up pollution and develop clean energy in disadvantaged communities in what officials called the largest-ever investment in environmental justice.
Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Michael Regan called the grant program unprecedented and said it “has the promise to turn disadvantaged and overburdened areas into healthy, resilient and thriving communities for current and future generations.”

    This is a positive step towards addressing environmental justice issues. By allocating funds to clean up pollution and develop clean energy in poor and minority communities, the EPA is acknowledging the disproportionate burden these communities face. This investment will not only help improve the quality of life for residents but also contribute to a more sustainable and equitable future.
