Healthcare’s climate footprint accounts for 5% of net global carbon emissions, while Intensive Care Units (ICUs) are important consumers of material and energy resources. Therefore, the need for all ICU workers to work collectively towards sustainable critical care is imperative.
The European Society of Intensive Care Medicine (ESICM) prioritises environmental sustainability in research, education, practice and policymaking. The newly established ESICM Task Force on Environmental Sustainability, led by Prof. Jan De Waele, will announce a series of initiatives.
This short survey aims to capture your views on sustainable critical care in your setting. The results from the survey will inform further phases of the ESICM: Environmental Sustainability in ICU.
We would be grateful if you could disseminate our survey among the members of your society and encourage them to share their experts’ views and current sustainable practices. Here is the link to the survey: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/QRQ2T3R.
This survey will be open until the end of November 2023.
