Sharing Call: Carbon Footprinting for Healthcare

Description

Join the call to learn more about how to two large healthcare organizations have developed a carbon footprint for their healthcare operations. Leading experts at Kaiser Permanente and the VA Healthcare System shared their organizations' experience in developing a robust carbon footprint/greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions inventory. The speakers highlighted which emissions they considered in developing their greenhouse gas emissions profile and the key challenges in carbon accounting for certain medical services or products. KP utilizes the Climate Registry's reporting methodology while the VA follows federal greenhouse gas reporting protocols. We hope you'll take the time to learn more about how healthcare can build a consistent reporting scheme for greenhouse gas emissions and how we can help each other identify the best mechanisms for accounting and reporting.
