Job loss and environmental injustice
are a daily reality for many of our communities. The North
American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), first implemented
in 1994, has been a major force in creating a climate for
companies to enter and exit communities with little concern
for job loss and the toxic legacy left in their wake.
This guide has been created to
provide individuals and organizations resources for locating
community-specific information that reflects the ways corporate-led
globalization affects us at the local level.
