Guiding questions:

I checked the wikipedia and it's good that this article is already developed but I think after looking at your sandbox you can talk more about how the United States or where your practice organization is has implemented policies on environmental planning and add more information about debates ongoing with environmental planning such as permit zones or how environmentalists and architects are implementing environmental friendly developments that are sustainable. Also maybe you can add more information on the EPA and what it does to help with environmental planning. This is a super cool wikipedia and I think if I were checking it out for the first time it would be cool to discuss noteworthy environmental projects that have been developed in the United States. Also, what are some regulation law examples that many developers have to keep in mind while planning? Another thing I suggest is more sources!

You could do subsections


 * 1) EPA
 * 2) Regulation Laws
 * 3) Noteworthy Developments
 * 4) Practice Organization
 * 5) Debate

 New Section: Regarding Environmental Justice (w/in environmental planning) (Write about different countries regarding Environmental Justice) 

In conjunction with environmental planning is the subject of "environmental justice": the equitable inclusion and treatment of all human beings in the universal development of environmental regulations, as well as the exaction of such regulations. This subject is entirely inclusive of all humans in a community, state, and/or continent regardless of ethnicity, socioeconomic class, ir any other distinguishing aspects of people. It is important to know that environmental justice issues are fought typically within communities to establish better living conditions that are sustainable and improve the ecological environment as well as the neighborhood quality.( Explain why it is better to be in communities/what communities do, provide examples). The Environmental Protection Agency has recommended that the leaders who are involved in the urban planning of a community must take into consideration who lives in these neighborhoods. The EPA has declared that it is essential that the beneficiaries of these neighborhoods should play an active role in the reshaping of their stomping ground. The general agreement on statements such as this sparked many conversations about the need for equitable and sustainable housing/transportation, which are core characteristics of environmental justice. This part of the battle against the climate crisis is intended to help uplift many underrepresented communities facing environmental issues. With the Environmental Protection Agency issuing a public declaration about the importance of environmental justice, many governments have now emphasized the need to assist in giving these underrepresented communities the social agency to be able to combat imminent environmental problems that threaten their health or way of life. (Talk about systemic issues that perpetuate poverty and environmental issues)
