Healthcare on the environment

Healthcare is one of the most polluting industries, responsible for nearly 5% of total global greenhouse gases and generating over a tonne of waste per hospital bed each year. The COVID-19 pandemic has also greatly exacerbated the use of single-use plastics which have limited potential for recycling.

Kindly supported by our strategic partner the World Innovation Summit for Health (WISH) BMJ Innovations is planning a special supplement in April 2022 to showcase the innovations that can reduce the impact of healthcare on the environment.

Closing date for submissions is 28th January. Find out more and submit now >>
