Metered dose inhalers produce significant carbon emissions. Ironically, these contribute to changes to the climate that can exacerbate respiratory conditions. Simple practice changes can help disrupt this cycle and lessen the health sector's contributions to climate change.
#Learning outcomes
- Explore the carbon footprint of healthcare systems and how inhalers contribute to it
- Examine two problems related to inhaler prescribing
- Imagine practice change that results in an immediate reduction in emissions: "high value, low carbon care"
