"Medicine is often thought of as a career that involves ‘saving lives’, but how commonly are doctors encouraged to consider the carbon cost of the healthcare they provide, or the long-lasting health implications of high-emission healthcare?" #bioethics blogs.bmj.com/medical-ethics…

My blog in J. of Medical Ethics arguing the GMCs position on sustainable healthcare doesn’t go far enough to be seen as ethically justifiable. Urgent rethink required GMC Sustainable healthcare *is* good care. Prof Colin R Melville UK Health Alliance on Climate Change Health for XR @GreenerPractice Centre for Sustainable Healthcare

Opportunity to join the NHFD team as an honorary clinical fellow. A great opportunity for trainees to get involved in the NHFD and understand how it works. I found this incredibly useful and couldn’t recommend it more. BOTA jobs.rcplondon.ac.uk/VacancyDetails…

Just in case the media start giving a feck about the public’s health, here is the NHS data showing we have 2,700 fewer medical beds this winter than last winter. Remember last winter, when thousands died bc they couldn’t get access to hospitals? Maybe worth reporting!

The GMC has failed us all. Suspending whistleblowing doctors for sounding the alarming on climate devastation rides roughshod over the GMC’s own legal & ethical responsibility to protect patient safety. All health leaders should call this out urgently. UK Health Alliance on Climate Change

'Nonviolent climate protests and the medical profession – should doctors be struck off for their actions?' 🌍👩‍⚕️ A new blog post by Rammina Yassaie #bioethics #climatechange blogs.bmj.com/medical-ethics…

Today, GMC chair Carrie MacEwen said Sarah Benn was not suspended “for protesting about climate change… that was irrelevant… but because she broke the law.” Adding that GMC “don’t ask what the motivation is”, just whether the doctor has broken the law. So wrong! 🧵/ 1
