Since I joined ⁦⁦@KingsCollegeNHS⁩ we have wasted over 6t of Nitrous Oxide, the climate equivalent to driving round the world 200x. We aim to eliminate this waste starting with the decommissioning of this manifold in Oct. Welcome to the fascinating world of medical gas!

Great clinical leadership by Adrian Dabrowicz who presented the minimisation of desflurane at our Sustainability board committee and casually mentioned that the change also saves £50k per annum. Happy sustainability lead and happy CFO!
Following the launch of our #GreenPlan ♻️, we have significantly reduced the use of desflurane at our hospitals. This means that we are producing 6⃣0⃣,0⃣0⃣0⃣ kg less eCO2 a month. Read more about our commitment for a #GreenerNHS 👉 bit.ly/3AmI9ZW
