OPEN MIC: NEXT IN HEALTH SERIES – Net Zero Healthcare (EN)
We’re thrilled to finally announce our second event of the Open Mic: Next in Health Series on Net Zero Healthcare. The series invites leaders from vastly different backgrounds to take the mic and share their view on the trends, which will influence the transformations in healthcare. At the brand-new Novartis Pavillon, we already discussed the effects of AI and plan to further spice up the conversation by talking about carbon neutrality, Web3 and digital pharma, thus fostering progress in the Basel Area.
Net Zero Healthcare
A growing movement in the health sector acknowledges that the climate crisis together with COVID, the wildfires, floods and other manifestations of a growing climate emergency, is a health crisis. Although many initiatives made it clear that we need to retool healthcare to be both pandemic prepared and climate-ready, the paradox remains standing: The healthcare’s climate footprint is equivalent to 4.4% of global net emissions and is projected to triple between now and 2050, if no serious action is taken by all stakeholders. Industry players and start-ups put a great effort in designing solutions to tackle Healthcare Decarbonisation and bring healthcare towards zero emissions. Nevertheless, what can we do more precisely in order to move from words to action?
