The principle of environmental justice requires that no segment of the population, regardless of race, national origin, age, or income, should bear disproportionately high or adverse effects of environmental pollution. In 2011, by the Authority 415 ILCS 155/10, the Illinois legislature created the Illinois Governors Commission on Environmental Justice.
