  The White House Environmental Justice Advisory Council (WHEJAC) represents urgent initial recommendations on carbon management, highlighting regulatory, data, and risk challenges. Key recommendations include halting carbon management investments, clarifying federal initiatives, reviewing associated risks, ensuring transparent communication, and securing informed consent from affected environmental justice communities. WHEJAC plans ongoing review and requests specific responses at its December 2023 public meeting. This report of recommendations has been written as part of the activities of the WHEJAC, a public advisory committee providing independent advice and recommendations on the issue of environmental justice to the Chair of the Council on Environmental Quality (CEQ) and to the White House Environmental Justice Interagency Council (IAC). Dr. Ana I. Baptista was on the Carbon Management Workgroup and contributed to these recommendations.

• Report: WHEJAC Recommendations on Climate Planning, Preparedness, Response, Recovery and Impacts

  The White House Environmental Justice Advisory Council (WHEJAC) submitted its final report to White House Council on Environmental Quality Chair Brenda Mallory and President Joseph R. Biden, offering recommendations on a whole-of-government approach to environmental justice, including climate change, disaster preparedness, and community planning. WHEJAC emphasized that their recommendations are a starting point for deeper, transformational change and rejected the overuse of the term "resilience," noting that it can be used to ignore communities’ needs. The report underscores the urgent and unequal impacts of climate change, especially on communities already burdened by poverty, pollution, and systemic inequality. Tishman Center prepared a literature review for WHEJAC members as preparation for the report.
