We’re bringing together leading voices in environmental and women’s health for a conversation about knowing – and owning – our value…as women, movement creators and champions of environmental health.<\/p>\n

Brzezinski recently spoke to Mark Abrials, chief marketing and sustainability officer – and co-founder at “Avocado green mattress” – one of our event sponsors – about the role companies play in advancing environmental and social responsibility.<\/p>\n

“For Avocado … Earth Day is every day. I mean, Earth Day is built into our DNA ,” said Abrials. “I think it’s a time for consumers to just maybe reflect upon the products that they do bring into their house and maybe use it as an opportunity to dig deeper into how they’re made, how materials are sourced, because that has a direct impact on your own personal health, but also the health of the planet.”<\/p>\n
