Healthcare’s Greenhouse Gas Emissions

Healthcare roughly 3-5% of global GHG emissions United States healthcare roughly 8-12% of country GHG emissions

ERM estimate

Total global health expenditure US$ 6.5 TrillionWHO Global Health Expenditure Atlas, 2012

Current population roughly 7.1 Billion United Nations

NHS SDU

Sustainable Development Unit set up in 2008

Working across the health sector in England

To develop organisations, people, tools, policy and research which will enable organisations to promote sustainable development, to mitigate and to adapt to climate change.

Pfizer is on a Green Journey Publish company environmental KPIs alongside financial performance metrics in annual report• Integrated report to shareholders includes:

• Greenhouse Gas Footprint• Waste Generated• Water Withdrawal

Gaining Efficiency – Site Operations

Achieved 5-yr Public Goal to Reduce Greenhouse Gas Emissions by 20% after only 4 years• Second time since 2000 that Pfizer has achieved its

target of cutting GHG emissions.• Result of more than 1500 energy conservation

projects• Achieved $85M in annualized project savings• Every dollar invested recovered within 2 years, on

average.

A Decade of Green ChemistryCase Study: Lyrica (Pregabalin) – process changes

Process 1 (2005-2006) Classical chemistry, carbon based solvents. Used to launch the product

Process 2 (2006-2010) Enzymatic chemistry, all chemical processes use water as solvent

Process 3 (2010-present) Enzymatic process, all chemical processes use water as solvent. One key by-product which was incinerated in process 2 is now recovered and converted to high quality product, albeit with a relatively high energy process

Solvent, reagent and energy reduction gives a saving of 3 million tonnes of CO2 emissions. Or equivalent to 500,000 US cars off the road for a year.

Opportunities IdentifiedUse of better alternative solvents makes it safer for

workers, processes and the environment, where possible.

Green Chemistry- Finding a better alternative through solvent selection.

StrategyEncourage selection of “better” solvents by evaluating the following characteristics:– Worker Safety - carcinogenicity, mutagenicity, reprotoxicity, skin

absorption, skin sensitisation and toxicity– Process Safety – flammability, potential for high emissions, static

charge, potential for peroxide formation, odour issues.– Environmental and Regulatory Considerations – ecotoxicity, ground

water contamination potential, EHS regulatory restrictions, ozone depletion potential, photo reactive potential

Gaining Efficiency – Product/Packaging

Formed Sustainable Packaging Team seeking opportunities for reducing packaging weight, optimizing designs, changing materials, and improving pallet layouts• Developed Green Package Design Checklist• Thin gauging bottles and foils• Eliminating extra PVC trays• Eliminating inserts and individual cartons can

reduce overall packaging mass by 8%• Smaller tablet that leads to less packaging

Summary

Continued Interest in Environmental Sustainability

• Growing Interest in Environmental Sustainability– Institutions– Governments– Investors

• Gaining Efficiency through Environmental Sustainability– Resource Efficiency – energy, water & waste– Process Chemistry– Green Packaging Design

• Succinctly stated Environmental Sustainability –It’s good for our environment, It’s good for our communities, It’s good for our business
