To test theoretical explanations of racial differences in environmental political action, positing that blacks are less concerned than whites about environmental quality issues, data drawn from a 1980 US Dept of Agriculture field survey, involving face-to-face interviews with 559 blacks & 6,035 whites, were analyzed.
