Green Gentrification
Green Gentrification looks at the social consequences of urban "greening" from an environmental justice and sustainable development perspective. Through a comparative examination of five cases of urban greening in Brooklyn, New York, it demonstrates that such initiatives, while positive for the environment, tend to increase inequality and thus undermine the social pillar of sustainable development. Although greening is ostensibly intended to improve environmental conditions in neighborhoods, it generates green gentrification that pushes out the working-class, and people of color, and attracts white, wealthier in-migrants.

Saunders rose from his cover, raced to the end of the building and leapt for the next roof. Jim spun and fired; his snap shot finding its mark, as the bullet ripped into Saunders side and lodged in a lung. Saunders twisted sideways from the impact of the lead, then thudded to the street.
