That the industry actual cares about the environment as well-

Why is that a surprise? I know at my healthcare organization there are tons of committees and employees that try to lessen our green footprint to the world. I am curious to hear what other organizations do too :)

Working with others always helps to motivate you because you all will have different energy levels to bring to the table.-

One recent action that stemmed from the work of the ESSC at Orlando Health was changing the generic product we stocked for albuterol metered dose inhalers (MDIs). MDIs are medicaitons used by patients with certain lung diseases like asthma and COPD to help control their disease and treat symptoms. The propellant used in these medicaitons is the largest medication source of greenhouse gases in the United States because it is a refrigerant with an outsized impact on trapping heat. While we look to federal legislators and pharmaceutical companies to take action to change the type of propellant used in these MDIs, we are reviewing which choices are best currently, and found that the product we were stocking had a higher impact than other options. Now we will be stocking the best product, a generic version of Proventil, to decrease the impact of the heat-trapping effect of the metered dose inhalers we dispense at Orlando Health. -

Yes. Working with others in the sustainability space is what gives me so much hope and keeps me motivated to keep it going! I am so grateful for everyone on my team for the EcoChallenge! I also am so inspired by all of our team members on the ESSC, working in so many different areas of our health system, who are evaluating best sustainability practices and working to implement them.
