Word of Mouth

Today on Word of Mouth, India is home to more than three million HIV cases, but the stigma that surrounds it prevents people from openly discussing the epidemic, or solutions to it. Today, on the 20th annual World AIDS Day, we talk with the editor of a new book that takes an unprecedented cultural look at how the disease spreads in India. Plus, teaching your kids that it’s okay to lose. And we take a trip to New Hampshire’s first “con-greenience store.” And our “next green thing” series continues with a look at new environmentally-friendly building materials.
