LOCATION — When Charlotte Brody found out the US healthcare system was responsible for more carcinogenic dioxin discharge than any other industry, she decided to do something about it.
Rather than turning to activism, however, Brody ”“ a former nurse ”“ has reached out to hospital administrators helping them commit to reducing medical waste incineration, increase recycling, and construct new hospitals without cancer causing construction materials.
Join host Jerry Kay, publisher of the Environmental News Network, as we learn about Charlotte Brody’s Healthcare Without Harm campaign, find out how ethnic restaurants are going "green" and meet the man who helped plant over a million trees in Los Angeles.
