How healthcare can advance sustainability

About this Spotlight

The aim of healthcare is straightforward: to keep people healthy. Yet, paradoxically, the healthcare sector also carries a substantial environmental footprint, accounting for approximately 4.4% of global greenhouse gas emissions. There is a growing awareness that in order to keep people healthy, we need to work together towards a sustainable tomorrow.

The Siemens Healthineers Spotlight video explores innovative solutions to reduce energy consumption and waste, preserve resources, and transition to a circular economy, highlighting the experiences and knowledge of respected healthcare leaders from across the globe.
