Series SummaryClimate health is an emerging and rapidly evolving field of medicine with which hospitalists need to be familiar. Clinicians are often unaware of the impacts of environmental factors on patients’ health and do not feel comfortable counseling on the subject or educating students, residents, and colleagues. They should recognize the ecological determinants of health as impacting patient care directly and indirectly and have the tools to affect healthcare sustainability practice and understand the applicability of sustainable quality improvement tools.
