本文指出美国医疗系统需减少温室气体排放并适应气候变化，强调机构动机和劳动力参与对实现气候适应性的关键作用，并建议将气候变化内容纳入教育课程。
Policy Points The US health care system faces mounting pressure to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and adapt to the impacts of climate change; motivated institutions and an engaged health care workforce are essential to the development, implementation, and maintenance of a climate-ready US health care system. Health care workers have numerous profession-specific and role-specific opportunities to address the causes and impacts of climate change. Policies must address institutional barriers to change and create incentives aligned with climate readiness goals. Institutions and individuals can support climate readiness by integrating content on the health care implications of climate change into educational curricula.
