Sustainability in Healthcare: 100% Needed for Patients & Planet

Planetary Health is OUR Health.

Climate change strikes at the very core of healthcare, whose mission is to keep people healthy. 

The health impacts of extreme temperatures, rising sea levels, forest fires, natural calamities, and the expansion of the range of chronic and infectious diseases are apparent. 

Healthcare delivery leaves behind an environmental footprint from the use of large quantities of natural resources, generation of air pollution, vast amounts of waste, and substantial greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. 

While governments and international organizations may decide broader strategies and policies to deal with climate change, given that healthcare systems are on the front lines of its adverse effects, we cannot afford to sit idle.

The need for sustainable healthcare solutions has never been more critical. As the world grapples with the escalating challenges of climate change, resource depletion, and social inequities, we have the responsibility and opportunity to drive widespread sustainable practices and innovation.
