Greening Health

I get excited every time I see more published (particularly outside of academic journals) articles linking greening and public health.  I hope the green fad only gets stronger and permanent and that we can link it more concretely to public health to achieve both ends but less deterministically and achieve all the other factors such as improvements to other areas of our individual, social, built, political (and more) environment. I am not sure how it all makes sense for me but here is the article that motivated this blurb.  http://www.usatoday.com/news/health/2008-11-08-green-inequality-N.htm=

I also saw the LA equivalent of Critical Mass blazing down North Beverly in Beverly Hills last night and I wanted to honk my horn in support -- but I was walking.  Anyways I was excited to see the bicyclist presence in LA:)
