Book Description
Setting credible and ambitious decarbonization targets is a key step in implementing low carbon sustainable health systems. This document provides advice and resources to assist national and sub-national health officials in setting adequate decarbonization targets, as a supplement to the WHO Operational Framework for Building Climate Resilient and Low Carbon Health Systems. It contains a checklist of key considerations that can be used to ensure that emissions reduction targets are tangible and clearly defined, consistent with other decarbonization targets inside and outside the health sector, and function as an effective tool for driving and monitoring progress on health system decarbonization.
