Time to focus on sustainability in healthcare

The WHO states that an environmentally sustainable healthcare system is ‘a health system that improves, maintains, or restores health, while minimizing negative impacts on the environment and leveraging opportunities to restore and improve it, to the benefit of the health and well-being of current and future generations’.

And let us be honest, our actual healthcare system isn't exactly 'minimizing negative impacts on the environment'. Due to its large carbon footprint, the impact on climate change is real.

Meanwhile, the WHO identified the increased use of disposable instruments and prepackaged materials as the main reason why healthcare waste tonnages, especially in high-income countries, are increasing in volume strongly over the last couple of years.
