The United States healthcare industry produces an exorbitant amount of greenhouse gas emissions, due to the number of energy-consuming activities that occur on provider campuses, including laundry, medical and lab equipment use, sterilization, computer and server use, foodservice, and refrigeration. These emissions have increased by more than 30% over the past 10 years.
