Physicians for Social Responsibility

Given the recent oil disaster in the Gulf of Mexico, I've been thinking quite a bit about the environment. What can physicians do to improve the environment? We can make donations and volunteer our time, but can we do more? If you haven't done so already, it's time to join the Physicians for Social Responsibility

Physicians for Social Responsibility is a non-profit advocacy organization that is the medical and public health voice for policies to prevent nuclear war and proliferation and to slow, stop and reverse global warming and toxic degradation of the environment.
