There is no winning under capitalism. Save the environment = gentrification and hurting marginalized peoples. Not doing this = everybody dies but the Mars trillionaires. Choose your evil.

In all seriousness this was a very thorough look at Green Gentrification in New York City, examining how different policies have pushed people further to the margins of society in efforts to beautify the city and make it more environmentally friendly.

Parts of the book felt like they were written with only New York City residents/Americans in mind as readers. My Canadian self does not inherently understand the implications of certain governing bodies by last name alone and there were sections of this book I had to do additional research for in order to understand the full context. 

Other than that, this was a book that was already on my radar to read before I had to pick it up for class and is definitely the best one I have had to read all semester. Cheers!
