Equity Framework
• Procedural equity encompasses fairness in political processes and
participation in decision making.
• Distributive equity highlights the need to consider not just the
allocation of benefits, but also the costs and risks with a focus on
the outcomes of allocation decisions.
• Contextual equity recognizes the fact that the playing field is never
level but that people’s capabilities and their access to resources and
power determine the extent to which they are able to utilize
procedural equity to determine the best distributive outcome for
themselves.

During Hurricane Katrina, over 1,800 individuals died because they were unable to evacuate the city.
Persons with special health conditions and persons who were elderly, poor, or differently abled were the most likely to die.
Low-income African Americans often could not evacuate because they had no personal transportation.

Green School Results
• An analysis of two school districts in Illinois found that student attendance rose by 5% after incorporating cost-effective indoor air quality improvements.
• A study of Chicago and Washington, DC schools found that better school facilities can add 3 to 4 percentage points to a school’s standardized test scores, even after controlling for demographic factors.
• A recent study of the cost and benefits of green schools for Washington State estimated a 15% reduction in absenteeism and a 5% increase in student test scores.

Green School Impacts
• “Third Creek Elementary School replaced ADR and Wayside Elementary Schools, schools that were two of the district’s lowest performing school in regards to test scores and teacher retention/absence.
• This same group of students and teachers improved from less than 60% of students on grade level in reading and math to 80% of students on grade level in reading and math since moving into the new Third Creek Elementary School. Third Creek had the most gains in academic performance of any of the 32 schools in the school system.

Achieving 75% waste diversion in
2030 would:• Create 1.5 million new jobs
• Lower greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions
by 515 million tons
(~72 coal plants or 50 million cars)• Significantly reduce pollution impacting
human & ecological health
