Carbon Modelling in Dentistryoverview of the day and intro to sustainable healthcare Rachel Stancliffe Centre for Sustainable Healthcare 17th February 2015
Aims of the day: To explore the feasibility of carbon mapping common dental procedures – exploration and collaboration Within this: 1. dentistry/sustainability exchange - understand each others’ worlds; 2. mapping/modelling – which models do what; 3. What can we do in dentistry – how can we collaborate

BUT in 2015, health services still face major problems: • COST • Rising demand • Financial crisis • Waste • QUALITY • Safety • Inequalities • Patient experience • CARBON • Climate change • Carbon reduction
Climate Change Act (2008) • 80% by 2050 • 34% by 2020 at least
Climate change and health • Direct effects: heatwaves, floods, storms, altered disease vectors • Indirect effects: drought, crop failure, malnutrition, migration, conflict
