Which NGO was established in response to contamination concerns in West Harlem and focuses on environmental racism and justice for communities of color?

  1. WE ACT

  2. Greenpeace

  3. Environmental Justice League

  4. Community Coalition for Environmental Justice

The correct answer is: WE ACT

WE ACT was established in response to contamination concerns in West Harlem and focuses on environmental racism and justice for communities of color. Greenpeace is an environmental organization that is known for its activism and campaigns, but it is not specifically focused on addressing environmental concerns in Harlem or for communities of color. The Environmental Justice League is a fictional organization and is not a real NGO. The Community Coalition for Environmental Justice is not the correct answer because while it does focus on environmental justice, it is specific to the South Central Los Angeles area and not West Harlem. Therefore, WE ACT is the correct answer as it aligns with the given context and information provided in the question.
