0:48Now PlayingDr. Mustafa Santiago Ali explains why rising food prices aren't just an economic issue—they're also connected to the climate crisis and environmental injustice.
Ali says communities facing toxic pollution often lose the ability to safely grow their own food, while climate change continues to drive up food costs and worsen health disparities. He also highlights the connection between fossil fuel pollution, asthma and the disproportionate environmental burdens many Black communities face.
"We have to make sure we're having the environmental justice conversation with the climate crisis conversation."
