@UCSFSurgery @SustainUCSF is working to reduce our carbon footprint - how are you greening the OR today?🍃 Thank you @SeemaGandhiMD & OR leadership for making this possible, and @JAMA_current for spreading the word. Let's keep up the green work! 🌎♻️
Operating rooms have not focused on environmental impacts but a growing movement among surgical teams is trying to change that. This short JAMA Network film features experts working to make ORs more sustainable. ja.ma/4bIDyU5
