İklim Değişikliği ile Mücadelede Hemşirelerin Rolleri: Sağlık İçin Sağlıklı İklim
Abstract
Küresel ısınma ile iklim doğal seyrini kaybetmekte ve aşırı hava olayları meydana gelmektedir. Artan sıcaklıklar ve değişen iklim koşulları insan güvenliğini, sağlığını ve yaşam kalitesini negatif yönde etkilemektedir. Sağlığımızı yeniden kazanmak, korumak veya yükseltmek için başvurduğumuz hastaneler dünyada karbon emisyonunu artıran kurumlar arasındadır. Hastanede tedavi ve bakımda sürekli aktif olan hemşireler de kaynakların kullanımı ve yönetimi ile doğrudan hastanelerin karbon emisyonuna etki eden gruplar arasındadır. Bu nedenle bu derlemede hemşirelerin iklim değişikliği ve sağlığa etkilerine yönelik rollerinin önemini vurgulamak ve bu konuya ilişkin meslektaşlarımıza farkındalık çağrısında bulunmak amacıyla hazırlanmıştır. Ayrıca hemşirelere hastane ve hastane dışı yaşantılarında iklim değişimini ve karbon ayak izini azaltan güncel öneriler sunulmuştur.

Roles of Nurses in The Challenge Against Climate Change: Healthy Climate for Health
Abstract
With global warming, the climate is losing its natural course and extreme weather events are occurring. Increasing temperatures and changing climate conditions negatively affect human safety, health, and quality of life. The hospitals we apply to regain, protect, or improve our health are among the institutions that increase carbon emissions in the world. Nurses, who are constantly active in hospital treatment and care, are among the groups that directly affect the carbon emissions of hospitals through the use and management of resources. For this reason, this review has been prepared to emphasize the importance of nurses' roles in climate change and its effects on health and to call for awareness of this issue to our colleagues. In addition, current recommendations are presented to nurses to reduce climate change and carbon footprint in their hospital and non-hospital lives.
