Greener Veterinary Medicine? How Veterinarians Are Being Asked to Adopt Environmentally Friendly Practices

greener veterinary medicine

“Going green” has been the goal of countless industries over recent years—but what about veterinary medicine? Healthcare industries don’t typically come to mind when you think of environmental improvements, but maybe they should! Keep reading for more information on how experts and professionals are turning their focus toward greener veterinary medicine. 

Environmentally Conscious Lifestyles: Where Do Pets Come In?

It’s pretty clear now—adopting greener practices and an overall more environmentally friendly lifestyle isn’t a trend. More and more people are looking for better ways to care for the planet in their everyday decisions and activities, and people who have been doing this for years are constantly looking for ways to improve. 

If you know anyone with a pet (or you have a pet yourself), you know that pets are important members of the family! So, when most people adopt these greener practices, they often extend to how they treat their pets as well. 

When you take into consideration the drastic rise in pet ownership over the last few years, the connection becomes quite clear. There are more households with pets than there are children! And with Gen Z and millennials making up the majority of these pet owners, environmentally friendly options for their pets is a must. 

How this Movement Affects Veterinarians

The demand for greener, more natural veterinary products is seriously on the rise, and the veterinarians who can keep up will notice the difference. Clients are now looking for more holistic treatment plans, natural diets, and more natural pharmaceuticals for their beloved pets. 

While your clients will still turn to you for medical advice, they’re likely to know more about the potential options than in recent years or decades. The modern pet owner is very educated, and willing to do what’s best for their furry children! 

When it comes to pharmaceuticals, clients are looking for effective, cutting-edge products that will work with their pet’s natural healing process. They want limited toxic chemicals, synthetic ingredients, preservatives, and more. The good news? The perfect mixture of science and nature is usually the most effective solution!
