Som man kan ane, var min begejstring ikke til at skjule, da jeg hilste på vores nye sundhedsminister, @IdaAuken, for at tale om sammenhængen mellem klimaforandringer og #sundpol på @Folkemoedet . Jeg håber, at de to dagsordener kommer til at gå mere hånd i hånd de kommende år 🤞
Hvis vi for alvor vil gøre en forskel for klimaet, kan vi ikke nøjes med at se på det, som vi udleder fra sundhedsvæsnets egne bygninger og transport. Vi er også nødt til at se på vores indkøb og forbrug af produkter og serviceydelser. De udgør nemlig langt hovedparten af sundhedsvæsenets klimaaftryk.
🌱 Big thanks to all who joined our session on Life Cycle Assessment in Orthopaedic Surgery with Dr @AnnaRoeRas ! She shared her PhD journey & reminded us: recycling is often too late—we need to rethink upstream choices for real impact. 💡🌍

Tak for fokus - har selv set filmen to gange - en stærk film af et meget realistisk scenarie. Vigtigt med mere forskning og viden men også at iværksætte det, vi allerede nu ved virker - forventer ledelserne understøtter dén implementering #sundpol#dkpol https://t.co/16R83SU57m

@sophieloehde på #lægemøde: “Regeringen er klar til at investere mere i bl.a. almen praksis. Der er færrest læger der hvor de sygeste borgere bor. Der er også behov for mere prioritering, som @laegeforeningen også har italesat” #dkpol#sundpol@laegemoede
1/ Is it possible to assess the environmental #sustainability of surgical procedures? I want to compare the findings from surgical carbon footprint studies for a future paper. I found these studies on the @HealthcareLCA database. Are there any others? #healthNetworking24
Approximately 6.3 billion people live at risk of vector-borne diseases, which cause more than 300 million disease cases and more than 700,000 deaths annually @Nature https://t.co/fwIUsRwnId
There's still time to sign up for our #GreenerNursesandMidwives Week national webinars on Thursday 21 March.
Join @charlottemcardl and others to explore the vital role #teamCNO has in building a #GreenerNHS and how you can make sustainable changes.
