Cameron Hawkins, head of energy and environment at NHS Property Services, reveals how work is advancing fast to slash emissions across one of the world's largest health systems. In October last year, the NHS became the first national health service in the world to commit to becoming a net zero national health system. As the NHS is responsible for approximately four per cent of the UK's carbon emissions every year , it is vital that it achieves its goal of reaching net zero by 2040.
