Implementation of decarbonisation actions in general practice: a systematic review and narrative synthesis protocol.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

There is growing recognition of the importance of primary care in addressing climate change. The World Organisation of Family Doctors has urged general practitioners worldwide to commit to tackling climate change and to serve as agents of systemic and individual change. Though an increasing number of resources have become available to support the decarbonisation of primary care, there remains a lack of evidence about how primary care teams are using them, their reach across practices, their level of adoption and maintenance, their cost impact and their effect on carbon emissions. This systematic review aims to understand how primary care, with a focus on general practice or equivalent settings within the context of primary care, is implementing decarbonisation actions
