Practice Greenhealth
Practice Greenhealth is the health care sector’s go-to source for information, tools, data, resources, and expert technical support on sustainability initiatives that help our members meet their goals.
Electronic Product Environmental Assessment Tool (EPEAT)
The EPEAT Purchaser Award comes from the Green Electronics Council (GEC), the non-profit organization that manages the EPEAT ecolabel. EPEAT allows Stanford Health Care to efficiently address the lifecycle impacts of the electronics we purchase, including computers, displays, printers, copiers, mobile phones, servers, and televisions. EPEAT is used in purchasing contracts to require that our vendors only provide electronics that meet strict sustainability criteria. These products are more energy efficient, less toxic, longer lasting, and easier to recycle than products that do not meet EPEAT criteria while addressing labor and human rights issues along the entire supply chain. Buying these sustainable products move us closer to achieving our sustainability goals.
LEED
LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) is the most widely used green building rating system in the world. Available for virtually all building types, LEED provides a framework for healthy, efficient, and cost-saving green buildings. LEED certification is a globally recognized symbol of sustainability achievement and leadership.
The LEED framework informs all building types including new construction, interiors, operations and maintenance, and core and shell.
