Success Stories - Boston Medical Center
Overview of Case Study
Hear how Boston Medical Center tackled one of healthcare's trickiest emissions challenges. BMC's one-year progress report reveals that up to 85% of regulated medical waste was being misclassified — and that fixing it could cut waste-related emissions by nearly 70%. They've published their full report and a free how-to guide so other hospitals can find the same opportunities across three key factors: waste disposal method, waste volume, and packaging material type.
