Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (New York City). Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center's environmentally friendly initiatives span several hospital departments.

The center stores 77 percent of its equipment in reusable containers. Memorial Sloan Kettering's green initiatives extend to its food program; the hospital stocks healthy beverages and sustainable, locally sourced food with non-therapeutic, antibiotics-free meat.
