    Hi Richard, thanks so much for taking the time to act and to provide feedback – I’ll do some further checking on state pensions. I can see how it wouldn’t be invested, as such, I guess it would come from the public purse (but I’m speaking naively here), I’ll do some digging.
    From my personal investments perspective, I’ve asked the company who…Read more

    Hi Olivia, thanks for much for flagging this, I’ll look up Mike Berners-Lee on Twitter. BTW, if you’re a Twitter person, I can be found at: @THTpartnership. All the best.

  • Came across this great TED talk on fossil fuel disinvestment. I didn’t know that the BMA have disinvested in fossil fuels (2014)! Made me question pension investments – could we be fighting against ourselves by investing in fossil fuel companies through our pensions at the same time as trying to reduce our carbon footprints?

    • Mike Berners-Lee has carried out an evaluation of pension schemes and environmental sustainability. He has tweeted about the results in the last week or two. Worth a look.

    Hi Seema, that’s great to hear. I too think that keeping the energy going, and supporting each other is crucially important for the vitality of SIGS. Calculating the carbon costs is a really interesting approach for products; I’m definitely of the mindset of perfection is the enemy of progress. I’m a bit new and naive to these approaches, but I…Read more

  • Hi Everyone,
    As someone who is keen to progress this agenda, but is not currently running an improvement project in the Health System (but may very well be soon), I just wondered what people’s views are about what it’s appropriate to share in this group. It seems to me that, even when we’re not engaged in a project, we have daily conversations…Read more

    • Hi Pete. The two Bristol acute hospitals have declared a climate emergency with ambitious aims to become carbon neutral by 2030. We’re in conversations with our Sustainability team who are already working with our clinical teams to embed environmental benefits into QI projects. I think using the SIG would be a great way to share what we are doing…Read more
