A scholar of environmental justice and human rights, Rebecca has written scores of law review articles; five books (including Naming Gotham: the Villains, Rogues, and Heroes Behind New York Place Names); and three environmental justice comic books (with Charlie LaGreca Velasco). She serves on NYC’s Environmental Justice Advisory Board and EPA’s Children’s Health Protection Advisory Committee and is a scholar with the Center for Progressive Reform and a member of the NYC Bar Environmental Committee.
