Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: Health care waste and pollution are world-wide problems (World Health Organisation 2018). Nurses are well-positioned to be leaders in addressing waste, climate change, and other pollution from health service delivery; however, they often are unaware and/or underprepared to take action (Akore Yeboah, Rodrigues Amorim Adegboye, and Kneafsey 2024; Luque-Alcaraz et al. 2024). Internationally, nurses are increasingly being called to action to apply environmental health concepts to nursing practice and follow the ethical principle of first do no harm (International Council of Nurses [ICN] 2018; American Nurses Association [ANA] 2007, 2010).
