Digital education is reshaping nursing education by introducing flexible, technology-driven approaches that strengthen knowledge, clinical competence, and professional development. This paper examines how these digital learning methods contribute to environmentally responsible nursing practices. It highlights the ways digital platforms;such as e-learning systems, virtual and augmented reality simulations, telemedicine modules, and electronic health record training reduce the need for paper based materials and other physical resources, thereby limiting the environmental footprint of traditional teaching models. Eighteen peer-reviewed studies published between 2020 and 2025 were reviewed, identified through systematic searches of PubMed, CINAHL, MEDLINE, PsycINFO, Google Scholar, and Embase using terms related to digital education and sustainability. Eligible studies focused on English language empirical or theoretical work relevant to digital tools within sustainable nursing education, while articles lacking relevance, methodological rigour, or full-text access were excluded. The findings show that immersive technologies support skills development without relying on disposable training supplies, reinforcing the role of digital methods in promoting sustainable learning. The review also recognises ongoing challenges, including varying levels of digital competence, limited technological infrastructure, and resistance to innovation. Overall, the analysis indicates that digital education provides a meaningful pathway for embedding sustainability within nursing curricula and preparing environmentally conscious future practitioners. The paper concludes with recommendations for educators and policymakers on advancing digital sustainability and identifying research gaps that will help align technological progress with ecological responsibility in nursing education.
