ABSTRACT | The health sector accounts for approximately 8.5 percent of US greenhouse gas emissions, and hospital care makes up the greatest portion of the sector’s emissions. As the impacts of climate change intensify, it is imperative that the health sector reduces its emissions. Tracking and reporting annual building energy use and emissions data is a critical first step toward reducing emissions.
