Doctors for the Environment Australia has been working for over a decade to address healthcare sector’s carbon footprint and environmental impact and to highlight the added health and financial co-benefits of healthcare sector action.
We advocated strongly for a National Health and Climate Strategy and the accompanying National Health Sustainability and Climate Unit and have been closely involved in the subsequent strategy and formation.
We have a memorandum of understanding with the Australian Medical Association, where we agree to work together for zero emissions in Australian health care.
