ESCMID's reported carbon emissions

The European Society of Clinical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases (ESCMID), headquartered in Switzerland (CH), currently does not have available data on carbon emissions, as no specific emissions figures have been provided. Additionally, there are no documented reduction targets or climate pledges outlined in their initiatives. In the absence of concrete emissions data, it is important to note that many organisations in the healthcare and scientific sectors are increasingly recognising the importance of sustainability and are working towards establishing climate commitments. These may include setting science-based targets for emissions reductions, engaging in carbon offsetting, and implementing sustainable practices within their operations. As ESCMID continues to navigate its environmental impact, it may consider developing a comprehensive strategy to address carbon emissions and contribute to global climate goals.
