Achieving zero emissions in health and care
On the 10th of October 2023 we held the first hybrid Net Zero Clinical Care conference at BMA House, jointly organised by BMJ and the UK Health Alliance on Climate Change (UKHACC). Together we learnt how each health and care professional can help the NHS achieve its net zero target by 2040 whilst also improving the quality of patient care.
This year's conference was fully booked just six weeks after its launch with over 250 sustainable warriors joining us onsite and over 1,700 healthcare professionals logging on virtually from over 50 countries.
If you are a healthcare professional and just becoming interested in environmentally sustainable healthcare, or if you have already started on your net zero journey, be empowered and inspired by others on how you can take action.
Considerable progress has already been made but together, we can achieve even more. Further innovation and collaboration is needed to close the gap to a net zero health and care system in the UK, and every healthcare professional has a part to play.
Net Zero Clinical Care 2023 enabled action, built awareness and created a community for all those who joined us in-person and online.
We can't wait to see what 2024 entails, watch this space.
