| Abstract: | Healthcare aims to promote good health and yet contributes to climate change. Striving for a healthier planet translates to keeping people heathier. Health care professionals including podiatrists should strive hard to help promote environmental awareness. We have a responsibility to act now to achieve a more resilient and sustainable healthcare industry for our future generations. We need new solutions and new social structures to help solve this global crisis. Changes in clinical practice adopted by all health care professions could bring about a sustainable future! |
