Description
Ana Carlos continues to speak about the effects of warehouse expansion and companies buying up land in her town of Bloomington. She talks about homes being bought up and demolished to make room for warehouses and industrial parks. She also talks about how companies, such as Amazon, have made contributions to schools and promises to replace destroyed trees. These are attempts to gain support for their warehouses. However, Ana Carlos explains that these contributions won’t do much for Bloomington. Ana Carlos also recalls seeing similar warehouse expansion in Fontana and Riverside, all in the Inland Empire. Ana Carlos also comments on poor air quality affecting students' health, with increasing cases of Asthma. As well as the heat island effect caused by concrete.
