I agree that we should be concerned or at lease questioning the environmental effects of our large port. On my way to work, I take the 710S and then drive through the city of Vernon. Driving through there there are so many trucks and interesting smells from the chemicals that are being emitted into the air. And, my school is actually wedged between two trucking companies. I think it would be interesting to have my students consider the environmental effects of commerce on their own bodies and their community as a whole.
