"Democratic nominee Joe Biden linked climate change and pollution to the struggle against racial inequality, vowing to fight as president for environmental justice.
In remarks Tuesday webcast by the League of Conservation Voters, Biden said he would defend communities of color “where people, in fact, tend to be victims of being put in spots where the water is not clean, the air you can’t breath.”
“Climate change is not just an environmental issue,” Biden told the environmental group, which has endorsed him. “They now look at it as a health issue and a jobs issue and an equity issue.”"
