Green Physician Toolkit

The Royal College of Physicians has launched the Green Physician Toolkit to support doctors with a range of actions they can take in their day-to-day practice to mitigate and adapt to the effects of climate change. 

All physicians have a vital role to play in helping the NHS reach its net zero goal – changes to clinical practice and how care is delivered, whether large or small, will make an important contribution to reducing the environmental impact of the health service.   

The toolkit also brings together evidence on health and climate change, with case studies from across the NHS showcase how physicians can adopt these actions into their day-to-day practice.   

You can download the toolkit here. If you have any questions or would like to provide feedback on the toolkit, please contact policy@rcp.ac.uk.
