摘要
Climate change is considered the greatest long-term challenge we face, and it comes with a direct impact on women's health and pregnancy outcomes. There are many balances that physicians make in deciding elements of care, but environmental impact has not been a consideration. Health care leaders must recognize the impact of their decisions on carbon footprints and creatively look towards changes that will improve global conditions.
