This is a timeline of news and magazines articles focused on Formosa Plastic's purchased and proposed development of the Whitney Plantation in Wallace, Louisiana.
I hope to be involved in projects that aim to gather scientific evidence to inform environmental decision making and advocate for greater equity and justice in environmental governance. Through this work, I hope to learn the skills needed to engage in community based research and leverage community knowledge as expert knowledge.
