Right to Pollute
In sacrifice zones, the right of corporations or states to pollute supersedes the rights of the population to health and self-determination. Adapted from the work of Dr Max Liboiron, the "right to pollute" was coined by Centric Lab to describe the legal rights given to industrial polluters to contaminate soil, water and air.
“The state-sanctioned or extralegal production and exploitation of group-differentiated vulnerability to premature death.”
