"If H2E is going to meet its waste reduction goals of 50 percent by 2010 and its goal of virtual elimination of mercury by 2005, we need to throw the net far and wide in the health care industry, and our Champions for Change award winners are excelling in that effort, " said H2E coordinator Laura Brannon.The New Hampshire Hospital Association actively promotes the concepts of waste reduction, pollution prevention and energy efficiency to New Hampshire hospitals. NHHA communicates environmental news and resources through "STAT Green, " a quarterly environmental newsletter, and its Web site, www.nhha.org. It recently established the New Hampshire Hospitals for a Healthy Environment network, whose primary goal is to reduce both the volume and toxicity of hospital waste and to advance the goals of H2E.
