Prevent pollution in Healthcare. Join the Green Pharmacy Campaign in Berkeley.
Through collaboration with local pharmacies, health providers, consumers, and waste management, the Green Pharmacy Campaign offers an environmentally positive alternative to throwing unwanted drug waste down the drain, toilet, or in the trash, by providing take-back sites for unwanted medications.
