I got an e-mail earlier this week announcing that the Green Guide for Health Care has revamped and relaunched their website. There is a HEAP of good info and definitely worth a look!
From the site:
The Green Guide for Health Care is a best practices guide for healthy and sustainable building design, construction, and operations for the healthcare industry. Download the Green Guide today!
Cancer treatment centers built without materials linked to cancer. Pediatric clinics free of chemicals that trigger asthma. Health care facilities with fresh air and sunlight that reduce their carbon footprint. Hospitals that serve healthy food.
Access and download a broad range of resources about sustainable healthcare design, construction and operations, and the pillars of 21st century healthcare: carbon neutral, water balanced, toxic free, zero waste, socially just, and aspirational.
Sustainable healthcare can be a reality
