Project Overview
The healthcare industry is responsible for 6-7% of the Netherlands' national carbon footprint, with Intensive Care Units (ICUs) having three times the environmental impact of general hospital care. At Erasmus Medical Center (EMC), each ICU patient generates 17kg of waste daily, translating to 12kg CO2-equivalent emissions. This project addresses the challenge of reducing the ICU's environmental footprint through a data-driven approach to meet EMC's sustainability targets of 55% CO2 reduction and a 100% circular ICU by 2030.
Problem
The Erasmus MC ICU needs to reduce its environmental footprint but lacks the data insights to effectively measure, monitor, and improve its impact. Current sustainability data is fragmented across departments, making it difficult for the ICU Green Team to execute their established workflow of identifying hotspots, setting goals, and implementing interventions.
By bridging the gap between environmental data and clinical practice, GERDA demonstrates how data-driven approaches can effectively support sustainability progress in healthcare settings while respecting clinical priorities.
