Beyond Toxics challenges environmental pollution by taking on its root causes – environmental racism and injustice – and activating and organizing the people who are most affected by pollution and harm.

Our organization was founded in 2000 as a diverse coalition of working class, rural and industrialized communities seeking to end a pattern of exposure to pollution.
We do this work side-by-side with the frontline communities that suffer the brunt of environmental harm. We change policy by demanding that their experiences and knowledge play a central role in environmental policy decisions.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row type="full_width_background" full_screen_row_position="middle" equal_height="yes" content_placement="middle" scene_position="center" text_color="dark" text_align="left" top_padding="5%" bottom_padding="10%" overlay_strength="0.3" shape_divider_position="bottom"][vc_column column_padding="no-extra-padding" column_padding_position="all" background_color_opacity="1" background_hover_color_opacity="1" column_shadow="none" column_border_radius="none" width="1/2" tablet_text_alignment="default" phone_text_alignment="default" column_border_width="none" column_border_style="solid"][vc_custom_heading text="What Is Environmental Justice?" font_container="tag:h2|text_align:left|color:%23058efb" use_theme_fonts="yes"][divider line_type="Small Line" line_thickness="8" divider_color="default" animate="yes" custom_height="100" custom_line_width="120"][vc_column_text css_animation="bottom-to-top" css=".vc_custom_1513111979322{padding-right: 10% !important;}"]Environmental justice is the fair treatment and meaningful involvement of people of color and vulnerable communities who experience disproportionate levels of toxicity in their communities.
