Sustainability in the Pharmaceutical Industry

We’ve blogged about the close and natural link between health and sustainability a number of times before, including these recent posts on CleanMed, and these other posts on health and health care generally. We’ve also worked with leaders at this intersection, including Johnson & Johnson, Institute for Integral Nutrition and Practice Greenhealth.

So it’s only natural that Beth will join a panel discussion on Sustainability in the Pharmaceutical Industry, next Monday evening, 7/26, in Madison, NJ, along with several other distinguished pharma executives involved with sustainability work.

The event is free and will include networking and refreshments. So please plan to join us there. Just rsvp to Stephanie_m_lin@yahoo.com.
