2. Advocacy: Nurses can advocate for policies that address climate change and support sustainable healthcare practices. This can involve participating in professional organizations, engaging with policymakers, and supporting initiatives that promote environmental sustainability.
3. Sustainable Practices: Nurses can implement and advocate for sustainable practices within healthcare settings. This includes reducing waste, conserving energy, and supporting the use of renewable resources.
