Alongside its clinical and humanistic burden, Kidney Disease care is associated with a significant carbon footprint. We estimated that haemodialysis leads to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of ~12.8 tons of CO2 equivalents (CO2eq) per haemodialysis patient in the UAE annually. Decarbonization of CKD care is crucial in establishing an environmentally sustainable healthcare system. SKC are leading the way in green initiatives. SKC already employ many systems to reduce our carbon footprint including, special efficient buildings management systems, efficient reverse osmosis with recycling of rejected water and use in grey water applications (eg irrigation and toilets flushing).
