The relationship between hospitals and the environment is defined
by a glaring contradiction: as health care facilities deliver care
at any cost, their environmental footprint -- pollution, waste
production, unsustainable food services -- contributes to harming
community health. Greening Health Care examines the intersections
of health care and environmental health, both in terms of
traditional failures and the revolution underway to fix them.
Authored by one of the pioneers in health care's green movement, it
presents practical solutions for health care organizations and
clinicians to improve their environments and the health of their
communities. Topics include: making food services sustainable,
managing hospital waste, and relevant impacts/mitigating measures
related to climate change. As environmental protection grows into
an imperative for all aspects of society, Greening Health Care
offers an historical and practical approach to sustainable health
care delivery.
