GreenHealth Lab at University of California San Francisco

The GreenHealth Lab at University of California San Fransisco (UCSF) studies the interplay between healthcare delivery & climate change, publishing on the impact of the healthcare sector on the environment and on the impact of climate change on clinical care. The lab’s research informs climate change resiliency and mitigation policy, providing insights on topics like healthcare utilization shifts due to wildfires and the environmental costs of different therapeutic modalities. The lab also participates in education and outreach by presenting at national conferences, leading workshops on health-related life cycle assessment, and sharing toolkits for healthcare waste & emissions calculation.
