Environmental Racism. Environmental Colonialism. Eco-occupation. These diesel-fired electrical plants exhaust 150 megawatts of toxic waves to indigenous Bedouins in the Naqab region of Palestine- these are pollution-heavy and carcinogenic zones. They transport electricity to a nearby chemical plant used to make pharmaceuticals.

This is where the chemical, energy and technological industries intersect for the slow-death and continuous displacement of Palestinians from their now-toxic lands for the purposes of Israeli settler medicine, energy and life.

A desert is seen as life-less, when there are people who’ve lived in the desert for thousands of years.
