Title: Harm Reduction within Drug Experimentation
Description:
Einbinder's lecture focuses on the combinations of prescription, over-the-counter and recreational drugs that are most often resulting in overdose today, and he discusses related issues that affect the youth, from variance of social drinking laws within the U.S., to impacts of different routes of administration, to the importance of making oneself vomit.

Main discussion topics:
- importance of honest education on drugs.
- doctors' prescribing practices and trust issues with authority figures.
- a correlational (not causal) relationship between marijuana use and subsequent use of harder drugs.
- prescription pills are now the biggest problem.
- the deadliest combinations of prescription, recreational and over-the counter substances that result in overdose today.
- cigarettes (nicotine) is the most addictive, yet least practical drug on earth.
- Pulling the Trigger: the importance of making yourself vomit if you are already too drunk.
- impacts of different routes of administration (e.g. The technical difference between ingesting and snorting your Adderall)
- variance of social drinking laws in U.S. and private institutions.
- the causes and effects of the government's failed war on drugs.
- ideas for legalization, taxation, regulation, education and treatment.
- How To Have Fun And Not Die and the further education it encourages will lower the overall death rate.
