My name is Ashley Pedersen and I’m a graduating Environmental Studies Major at Westminster College.  I just completed an analysis of environmental hazards in Rose Park and those hazards’ relationship to community demographics such as race and class.  It seems to me that Rose Park is over polluted and the racial, ethnic and class minorities who live there are unjustly bearing disproportional health problems.  If you’d like to see my entire study please visit my Facebook page entitled “Environmental Justice for All.”  Please make comments as you see fit.  I’m interested in learning more and doing more about environmental justice in Utah.

Thank you,

Ashley
