The theme of this year’s Earth Day is ‘invest in our planet’. Time is getting short for us to solve the climate crisis at hand. Now is the time to act, now is the time to invest in our planet.
The amount of green innovative products and services we are seeing being developed is truly incredible, all that is left to do is to invest in the right spaces. The NHS’s focus on creating a greener future is stronger than ever and this can be seen by the high level of new innovations within this sector.
To celebrate Earth Day 2022, we will be inviting guest speakers from a range of companies developing new green innovations that would benefit the NHS.
