Climate change and environmental pollution threaten the health of our planet and the well-being of all global citizens. The healthcare sector is responsible for around five per cent of global greenhouse gas emissions, of which oral healthcare is an important contributor. Here at HSDM, through the collaborative efforts of our Sustainability Committee, in alignment with university's vision to create a sustainable Harvard community, we've engaged in a variety of efforts on research, policy, and programs to mitigate our waste production and minimize our carbon footprint. Come to see what we've got going on post-COVID and how you can join the effort.
