An interview with Lara Adler about her extensive knowledge of environmental toxins (e.g. air pollutants, water pollutants, pesticides, etc.) Environmental toxins have a profound deleterious effect on human, animal and environmental health, and the regulatory process surrounding their use in the world is far from robust. If many of us take simple steps (which she outlines in the interview!) to reduce our use of environmental toxins, it will significantly reduce the global burden of these toxins and send a strong message to product manufacturers that they need to start using safe alternatives. As always, our collective actions can make a huge difference!

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
