Why the Pharma Industry Must Address their Carbon Footprint

Rapid climate change has direct impacts on human health. These arise from multiple causes, including severe weather, changing ecology of disease vectors, increased allergens, and geopolitical conflict over scarce resources.

Healthcare itself contributes to climate change because of its sizeable carbon footprint. It follows that health systems should be frontrunners in reducing its carbon footprint to limit the impact of climate change and mitigate poorer health outcomes and inequity.

Many health systems have identified medicines as one of the largest single contributors to their carbon footprint. This session will evaluate the pharma industry’s carbon footprint and provide recommendations on what we can do to reduce emissions, meet environmental targets, and consequently open a new path to supporting human health.
