520			_aEnvironmental justice is both a vocabulary for political opportunity, mobilisation and action and a policy principle to guide public decision making. It emerged initially in the US and more recently in the UK, as a new vocabulary underpinning action by community organisations campaigning against environmental injustices. However, as the environmental justice discourse has matured, it has become increasingly evident that it should play a role in the wider agendas for sustainable development and social inclusion. The links between sustainability and environmental justice are becoming clearer and more widely understood in the UK by NGOs and government alike and it is the potential synergy between these two discourses which is the focus of this paper. This paper argues that the concept of just sustainability provides a discourse for policy-makers and activists, which brings together the key dimensions of both environmental justice and sustainable development.
