The Climate Emergency Is a Health Emergency

The carbon footprint of the NHS is the total greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions generated from the delivery of healthcare, and accounts for about 4% of the United Kingdom’s emissions (NHSE and NHSI, 2020).  Around 10% of these emissions come from the clinical products we use every day to care for patients (NHSE and NHSI, 2020). These emissions impact the health of our population, increasing heart disease strokes, asthma, cancers and Alzheimer's disease.

At CritEcoCare we specialise in reducing the impact of care on carbon emissions using our extensive experience and in-depth understanding of sustainable procurement.
