How Green is Your Travel? July 26, 2024

Most of us love to travel. But travel’s “dark side“ is its environmental cost: the carbon dioxide and other pollutants created from the fossil fuels burned for travel by air, land, or sea. The Green Travel Guide from the PSR’s My Green Doctor offers ways to calculate and reduce your travel carbon footprint.

My Green Doctor is a free money-saving membership benefit provided through Physicians for Social Responsibility. Members use the “Meeting-by-Meeting Guide” to learn how to adopt environmental sustainability, save resources, address the health threats of climate change, and help create healthier communities. This requires adding just five minutes to each regular clinic or practice staff meeting, making small changes at each meeting that really add up. Watch the “Three Minute Video” that explains how easy it is to incorporate My Green Doctor into your practice. We welcome everyone in your practice to register as Partner Society members at MyGreenDoctor.org or at MyGreenDoctor.es (si, en espanol). Use the discount code MGDPSR when you register to get free access to My Green Doctor and save money!
