Hippocrates advocated, “Make a habit of two things: to help; or at least to do no harm.” This book draws together international experts from the fields of healthcare, engineering, architecture, sociology, policy, and others to disclose the latest insights into forging viable means to care for an aging society ecologically. It focuses on the challenges and areas where remedies can be most feasibly implemented to mitigate the current shortfalls. Some adjustments in the way we currently operate can substantially furnish a healthier tomorrow.

This volume reveals the latest healthcare status. There are as many promising solutions as the number of challenges. Together, we can realize “caring for tomorrow ecologically.” Environmentalism in healthcare is the very essence of a healthy tomorrow.
