环境正义关注的是环境负担的公平分配。这些负担包括直接的健康危害以及微妙的不平等，如获得健康食品的机会有限。我们回顾了有关快餐店和便利店的邻里差异的文献。低收入社区提供了更多的食物来源，促进不健康的饮食。快餐店和便利店的分布因社区的种族/民族特征而异，需要进一步的研究来解决当前研究的局限性，确定有效的政策措施来实现环境正义，并评估干预策略，以促进终身健康的饮食习惯，最佳的健康，和充满活力的社区。(Am J公共卫生。2012;102：1644-1654. doi：10.2105/AJPH.2012.300865）
Environmental justice is concerned with an equitable distribution of environmental burdens. These burdens comprise immediate health hazards as well as subtle inequities, such as limited access to healthy foods.We reviewed the literature on neighborhood disparities in access to fast-food outlets and convenience stores. Low-income neighborhoods offered greater access to food sources that promote unhealthy eating. The distribution of fast-food outlets and convenience stores differed by the racial/ethnic characteristics of the neighborhood.Further research is needed to address the limitations of current studies, identify effective policy actions to achieve environmental justice, and evaluate intervention strategies to promote lifelong healthy eating habits, optimum health, and vibrant communities.
