If I were in Manhattan, my visit to the Environmental Health Clinic might involve a session afloat Dr. Jeremijenko’s raft/office on the East River. Under the circumstances, she treated me over Skype, checking my toxics and discussing treatment options, including a pet tadpole and a No Park (an urban parking space-turned-garden). The creator of the Green Light and other therapeutic instruments, Jeremijenko is a relentless synthesizer of technology, art, ecology, and delight. Our creativity, she says, is one of our most powerful tools, because “if we think of our agency just as green consumers, then our agency is only as big as our wallets.” Which is just plain boring.
