| | Environmental movement - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Environmental Justice is a movement that began in the U.S. in the 1980s and seeks an end to environmental racism. | | | One of the earliest lawsuits to establish that citizens may sue for environmental and aesthetic harms was Scenic Hudson Preservation Conference v. | | | In the United States, the 1970s saw the passage of key laws, such as the Clean Water Act, Clean Air Act, Endangered Species Act, and National Environmental Policy Act, which have been the foundation for environmental standards since. |
