• Description:
  The EJI is intended as a high-level mapping and screening tool that characterizes cumulative impacts and patterns of environmental injustice across the U.S. The EJI is a useful starting place for investigating issues of distributive and procedural justice and their effects on health and well-being. However, like all high-level tools, the EJI is subject to several limitations that should govern proper use of the tool.
