In this week\u2019s episode, host Daniel Raimi talks with Danae Hern\xe1ndez-Cort\xe9s, an assistant professor at Arizona State University, about a recent study that investigates how California\u2019s cap-and-trade program affects levels of harmful pollutants in environmental justice communities. Hern\xe1ndez-Cort\xe9s discusses how carbon markets can shift concentrations of local air pollutants, environmental justice outcomes of the cap-and-trade program in California, and the need for policies that target issues of environmental justice.\n\nReferences and recommendations:\n\n\u201cDo environmental markets cause environmental injustice?
