Which organization is focused on the dissemination and democratization of information to support local groups addressing toxic substances and social justice?

  1. OMBWatch

  2. Earthjustice

  3. The Citizen's Clearinghouse for Hazardous Waste

  4. Public Citizen

The correct answer is: The Citizen's Clearinghouse for Hazardous Waste

The Citizen's Clearinghouse for Hazardous Waste (CCHW) is focused specifically on the dissemination and democratization of information to support local groups addressing toxic substances and social justice. OMBWatch (A), Earthjustice (B), and Public Citizen (D) are all organizations that address environmental and social justice issues, but they do not have a specific focus on the dissemination and democratization of information to support local groups. Therefore, choosing any of these options would not accurately answer the question. Additionally, OMBWatch is more focused on government oversight, Earthjustice on legal advocacy, and Public Citizen on consumer and citizen rights, making them less relevant to the question at hand.
