Since 2004

OUR PROGRAM

Greening Health Care is a network of leading hospitals, healthcare groups and other organizations across North America working together to achieve deep energy and greenhouse gas emissions reductions in healthcare facilities. Members benchmark their performance and share best practices and success stories through workshops, a member website and the Annual Forum. Actual savings results are reported annually and top-performing hospitals are recognized every year. Greening Health Care conducts extensive data-driven research to address identified knowledge gaps, producing best practice reports, checklists and analytical tools to help hospitals accelerate their progress towards low carbon operations.
