'Brittany Johnson'] Machine learning (ML) has become a go-to solution for improving how we use, experience, and interact with technology (and the world around us).

People of color in the United States are disproportionately and unfairly exposed to air pollution. Equity-oriented scientific evaluations quantifying these disparities often use population-average exposure metrics to capture the overall inequality within a system. Utilizing these metrics involves choices about the…

Historically, environmental policy has emphasized aggregate emission reductions; yet major emission reduction scenarios do not sufficiently mitigate relative exposure disparities. Here, we show that without focusing on…
