Health care has responded to the Global Climate Action Summit’s call to “take ambition to the next level” by committing to power 2,600 health facilities with 100 percent renewable electricity.
In making this commitment, health care is joining thousands of cities, companies, higher education, and other organizations making similar commitments as part of a worldwide effort to accelerate the transition from dependence on fossil fuels to an economy based on clean, renewable energy such as wind and solar.
