title = "A GeoHealth Call to Action: Moving Beyond Identifying Environmental Injustices to Co-Creating Solutions",
abstract = "As marginalized communities continue to bear disproportionate impacts from environmental hazards, we urgently call for researchers and institutions to elevate the principles of Environmental Justice. The American Geophysical Union (AGU) GeoHealth section supports members' engagement in health-related community-engaged and community-led transdisciplinary research. We highlight intersectional research that provides examples and actions for both individuals and organizations on community science and trust building, removing barriers created by scientific agency priorities and career expectations, and opportunities in education and policy. Justice does not start or end at one meeting; this is ongoing work that is active, evolving, and an ethical responsibility of AGU's membership.",

note = "Funding Information: Helicopter research arises when privileged scientists travel to marginalized areas to collect data, and then process, analyze, and publish results with little to no involvement from local collaborators (Haelewaters et al., 2021 ). Within the United States, international research efforts often fall into helicopter research territory as a symptom of US federal funding limitations. For example, the National Science Foundation (NSF) and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) do not allow funding to support non‐US researchers and collaborators. The National Institutes of Health (NIH) does allow for salary support of local investigators, though issues of national security in the context of global research collaborations have recently made international collaborations more complex (Redden, 2019 ). While these limitations do not necessarily preclude paying local US‐based collaborators, they contribute to a system that makes conducting helicopter science advantageous to research careers (see Section 3.2 ).
