Abstract

The healthcare sector contributes approximately 4%–5% of global greenhouse gas emissions, with anaesthetic practice identified as a notable source. Recognising the urgent need for environmentally sustainable approaches, the Malaysian Society of Anaesthesiologists (MSA) and College of Anaesthesiologists (CoA) have developed a national consensus statement to guide green and sustainable anaesthesia practice in Malaysia.
