“Hospitals are energy- and resource-intensive enterprises that, as they operate today, contribute substantially to climate change while inadvertently contributing to respiratory and other illnesses...By reducing this footprint and moving toward carbon neutrality, the health sector can demonstrate the path forward in response to climate change, thereby playing a leadership role in advocating for a healthy and sustainable future.” Maria Neira, Director, Department of Public Health and Environment, World Health Organization, Healthy Hospitals, Healthy Planet, Healthy People.
