**4. Recommendation**

Green practice patterns can start with small steps, which will create an impact in a big way.


## **5. Conclusion**

Keeping in mind that certain current systems in place are not only harmful to the current generation but also have a potential impact on the health of the unborn generation, it is our ethical responsibility to bring change where possible. Though change is a necessity, it is not easy, especially in a large and complex system such as healthcare. So, every small innovation will have a significant role in paving the way toward a green healthcare system. These few easy and adaptable steps of structurebased (cubicle), function-based (LAN), and technology-based (3D and 4D counseling platforms) reforms have been able to pave a path toward sustainable healthcare by helping us reduce our carbon footprint.
