From Pink to Green chronicles the movement's disease prevention philosophy from the beginning. Challenging the broader cultural milieu of pink ribbon symbolism and breast cancer "awareness" campaigns, this movement has grown from a handful of community-based organizations into a national entity, shaping the cultural, political, and public health landscape. Much of the activists' everyday work revolves around describing how the so called "cancer industry" downplays possible environmental links to protect their political and economic interests and they demand that the public play a role in scientific, policy, and public health decision-making to build a new framework of breast cancer prevention. From Pink to Green successfully explores the intersection between breast cancer activism and the environmental health sciences, incorporating public and scientific debates as well as policy implications to public health and environmental agendas. 410 0$aCritical issues in health and medicine. 606 $aEnvironmentalism$zUnited States 606 $aBreast$xCancer$xPrevention 606 $aBreast$xCancer$xEnvironmental aspects 606 $aBreast$xCancer$zUnited States$xHistory$y21st century 606 $aBreast$xCancer$zUnited States$xHistory$y20th century 615 0$aEnvironmentalism 615 0$aBreast$xCancer$xPrevention. 615 0$aBreast$xCancer$xEnvironmental aspects. 615 0$aBreast$xCancer$xHistory 615 0$aBreast$xCancer$xHistory 676 $a362.196/99449 676 $a362.19699449 700 $aLey$b Barbara L.$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01474979 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910790286103321 996 $aFrom Pink to Green$93688941 997 $aUNINA
