During the year 2019 we experienced both successes and challenges in promoting sustainability and made a rapid progress in setting goals and measuring progress toward our commitment to promote sustainable achievements.
As we continue to further the human kindness movement both within Hospital and throughout our society, it is imperative that we measure, manage, and report our efforts on our interlocking environmental, social, and economic initiatives in a manner that allows all of us to see our true impacts on our world and our people.

CARBON REDUCTION

Hospitals across the country—and around the world—are taking action to reduce their carbon footprints. From increasing energy efficiency to reexamining their food systems to analyzing their supply chains and transportation impacts, hospitals are finding ways to dramatically reduce their greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.
Our hospitals generate greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in a variety of ways, including:
• the energy we use;
• the emissions we release;
• the food we serve;
• the supplies we purchase;
• the waste we dispose of
• the structures we build; and
• the transportation footprint from commuting employees and fleet management—to name a few.
Practice Green health is working with its member hospitals to develop and identify robust measurement and tracking systems for GHGs and helping create the transition to a more sustainable long term energy solution.
So what does the future hold for Ashraff Memorial Hospital, Kalmunai? That is something we are talking a lot about these days.
