In this lesson, students apply what they have learned about environmental justice to compare data about median income, race, tree cover, and air pollution in Compton and Pasadena. Students write inequality statements to reflect the data that they extract from maps. 

Inquire: Students review information from previous lessons on green spaces and environmental justice.

Investigate: Students compare maps of the two cities of Compton and Pasadena, California, looking at data on median income, race, tree cover, and air pollution to write inequality statements. 

Inspire: Students watch a video on youth climate activists and complete their drawings of their ideal green space.
