In this highly original look at environmental health policymaking, Jason Corburn shows the ways that local knowledge can be combined with professional techniques to achieve better solutions for environmental health problems. He traces the efforts of a low-income community in Brooklyn to deal with environmental health problems in its midst and offers a framework for understanding "street science"--decision making that draws on community knowledge and contributes to environmental justice.Like many other low-income urban communities, the Greenpoint/Williamsburg neighborhood of Brooklyn suffers more than its share of environmental problems, with a concentration of polluting facilities and elevated levels of localized air pollutants. Corburn looks at four instances of street science in Greenpoint/Williamsburg, where community members and professionals combined forces to address the risks from subsistence fishing from the polluted East River, the asthma epidemic in the Latino community, childhood lead poisoning, and local sources of air pollution. These episodes highlight both the successes and the limits of street science and demonstrate ways residents can establish their own credibility when working with scientists. Street science, Corburn argues, does not devalue science; it revalues other kinds of information and democratizes the inquiry and decision making processes. 001386070 588__ $$aOCLC-licensed vendor bibliographic record. 001386070 650_0 $$aEnvironmental health$$xPublic opinion. 001386070 650_0 $$aEnvironmental health$$xCitizen participation. 001386070 650_0 $$aEnvironmental policy$$xCitizen participation. 001386070 650_0 $$aEnvironmental justice. 001386070 650_0 $$aCommunities. 001386070 653__ $$aARCHITECTURE/Urban Design 001386070 653__ $$aENVIRONMENT/Environmental Politics & Policy 001386070 655_0 $$aElectronic books 001386070 852__ $$bebk 001386070 85640 $$3MIT Press$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://doi.org/10.7551/mitpress/6494.001.0001?locatt=mode:legacy$$zOnline Access through The MIT Press Direct 001386070 85642 $$3OCLC metadata license agreement$$uhttp://www.oclc.org/content/dam/oclc/forms/terms/vbrl-201703.pdf 001386070 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1386070$$pGLOBAL_SET 001386070 980__ $$aBIB 001386070 980__ $$aEBOOK 001386070 982__ $$aEbook 001386070 983__ $$aOnline
