At the back of every dental office are bags full of garbage with single-use materials and non-recyclable waste.
But what is dentistry’s role in contributing to the climate crisis and how can environmentally minded dental clinics offset this and mitigate the impact?
In this must-see webinar, Dr Markus Tröltzsch, co-founder and managing director of Greenviu, explores the ecological footprint of the healthcare industry through topics such as:
✔️ Sustainability from a business standpoint
✔️ Sustainability in the media and everyday life
✔️ The impact of climate change on human health
✔️ The ecological footprint of medicine
✔️ The Greenviu solution
Which dental procedures produce the largest percentage of the carbon footprint?
Does the implementation of digital techniques reduce a clinic’s ecological footprint?
How and why do we apply ‘reduce, replace and compensate’ in order to become sustainable?
How can we do this without hampering processes?
What makes the Greenviu solution efficient for clinics?
Greenviu is a membership-based society of medical professionals.
It is dedicated to promoting the sustainability of medicine with the goal of reaching a neutral ecological footprint for the entire industry by setting realistic standards, knowing that this has to be achieved without compromising success rates, hygiene, safety and practicality of procedures.
'I'm joining this project and cause full of pride and hope. It's all about thinking beyond yourself and doing what we can to make our planet a better place for our future generations. It was about time that dental professionals would unite around a project Like this to move into effective actions".
