Port Pollution Join us at AQMD to demand accountability from the Ports of LA & LB and protect our region from freight-related emissions.
Even miles from the Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach, our communities bear the burden of their pollution. One-third of all containers arriving at the Ports travel through our neighborhoods by train. The rest? They’re hauled in by trucks heading to warehouses built dangerously close to our homes, schools, and parks.
The Ports grew because our region built the infrastructure to support them. Now they want to double in size, without a clear plan to address the toxic emissions that expansion will bring.
📣 This Friday at 9 AM, join us at AQMD to stand with neighboring communities and demand clean air, environmental justice, and real accountability from Port polluters. Our voices matter. Let’s make them heard.
To get involved locally at the ports, reach out to our friends at East Yard Communities for EJ.
