We are living in an era where climate and health emergencies are one and the same.
In the spirit of “restoring the earth” amidst a climate crisis and the Covid-19 pandemic, it is the mission of the healthcare sector to recover and rebuild toward a decarbonized, climate-resilient and sustainable systems. For hospitals and health centers in Southeast Asia, that means taking small steps like turning off unused lights, integrating renewables in the hospital energy source, employing rainwater catchment in health facilities, putting bans on nonessential single-use plastics in the hospital, transitioning to healthy, plant-based food for the staff and patients as well as implementing sustainable health care waste management and doing away with waste incineration.
