Description

In 2022, 102 organizations representing 837 hospitals signed the White House Health Sector Climate Pledge. In addition to the private sector, federal systems are working to meet similar goals. Combined, this represents over 15% of U.S. hospitals that have committed to cutting carbon emissions with a net zero goal. Taking inventory of one’s carbon footprint is one of the earliest steps to achieve this ambitious but necessary net zero target. In this podcast episode, we discuss what conducting a carbon emission inventory entails.
