Climate Rounds | Sustainable Surgery
Operating rooms (ORs) use three to six times more energy per occupied space than other hospital areas and generate approximately one-third of its waste. But simple changes in surgical practice can cut waste, reduce energy-intensive sterilization, and lower greenhouse gas emissions without compromising patient care.
Join Choosing Wisely Canada and the Canadian Medical Association for Climate Rounds: Sustainable Surgery on April 23 at 12 p.m. ET. Experts will share how to lead sustainability efforts in the OR and practical strategies to drive meaningful environmental change in surgical care.
