Healthcare

When was the last time you were in a hospital as a patient, visitor, or worker? Can you recall what the atmosphere was like? Hospitals are meant to be places of health and wellbeing – where you go to get better. Intuitively it would seem that hospitals be aesthetically pleasing, soothing, environmentally healthy, and sustainable.

However, in the United States, hospitals have a huge environmental and climate footprint – they collectively use eight percent of all energy consumed and seven percent of all water used in commercial and institutional facilities. Imagine if that were all to change…

Imagine walking through healing gardens to get to the main entrance. You notice solar panels on the main roof and a green roof too. The hospital strives for zero waste and serves locally sourced nutrient dense foods in the cafeteria and in patient rooms. Imagine a hospital that improves the living conditions in communities the hospital serves; and supports a community garden as well.
