Eco•Conscious – Conciencia ecológica

Pollution is the main cause for the negative impacts in the environment and this affects many people living in California.

Fortunately, there are organizations that help to reduce and prevent pollution issues especially in areas where pollution is concentrated the most. Communities for a Better Environment (CBE) is an organization, which focuses on many kinds of environmental issues that affect color and working class communities in California.

CBE was initially formed in Chicago during the Environmental Movements of the 1970s. The time period of the Envionmental Movement was a very significant time period in the United States history. At the time, millions of Americans decided to participate in the first Earth Day week of April 16th  through the 22nd  in 1970, because they were concerned about the environmental problems that was affecting their health.
