Environmental Health: Important Choices for a Greener World

How many "Green' magazine covers have you seen lately? Likely you've seen a number of these Green covers since there has indeed been an increase in the number of such covers recently. This OJIN topic takes a look at environmental hazards, particularly chemical hazards, and considers the health effects of these hazards and the role of nurses in protecting and promoting health through healthier environments.
