Abstract
The world is facing a Climate Emergency. At the moment the impact is being felt primarily by those who are contributing least to carbon footprint through resource use, but climate change is recognised as 'the most significant threat to the health of humanity on a global scale'(NHS Wales p.6). A wide range of organisations including those focussing on the arts, healthcare and education, are working towards sustainability goals. This poster seeks to explore aspects of music therapy practice as well as reporting on a small scale research project, drawing to the attention of the profession changes that can be made to reduce the carbon imprint of music therapy.
